Countryline
70s outlaw country ballad, strong male vocals, piano, acoustic guitar, trumpet, darkLyrics
[INTRO]
Down in the heart of the countryline,
Where the shadows whisper your name,
I search for a way to go numb,
But all that I am have is the pain.
[VERSE 1]
We carved our dreams in the dust of this road,
Every laugh and every tear,
Now I'm lost, searching for a way to cope,
But all I feel is fear.
You were the light that guided me home,
Now it’s all just a ghostly ride,
In this empty bar, I drink alone,
With the rage that I cannot hide.
[CHORUS]
Where'd you go, did you see the lord?
Break me and change my world,
I miss you so; oh, I want to die,
Countryline, where love unfurled.
Looking for numbness, but filled with hate,
The flames of madness igniting my fate,
I’m looking to kill, I’m looking to un-feel,
Countryline, hear my pain… it’s all too real.
[VERSE 2]
Bite out a chunk of some man’s face,
Let him feel the fury inside,
You’re gone but you're haunting my days,
In this madness, I cannot abide.
Good times and bad times with you, they dance in my mind,
In a twisted, hellish waltz,
The ghosts of the past just don’t leave me alone,
And it’s driving me closer to fault.
[CHORUS]
Where'd you go, did you see the lord?
Break me and change my world,
I miss you so; oh, I want to die,
Countryline, where love unfurled.
Looking for numbness, filled with hate,
The flames of madness igniting my fate,
I’m looking to kill, I’m looking to feel,
Countryline, hear my pain… it’s all too real.
[BRIDGE]
Stab a guy, let the darkness take flight,
Count the sins under the pale moonlight,
You’re the curse that won't set me free,
In this twisted game, I'm losing me.
[CHORUS]
Where'd you go, did you see the lord?
Break me and change my world,
I miss you so; oh, I want to die,
Countryline, where love unfurled.
Looking for numbness, looking to die.
Take me away from this countryline.
[OUTRO]
Was in my truck driving the countryline late last night.
Seen a cowboy and his gal leaving the county tavern,
I ran them down just for the thud.
Thinking it might replace a spot in my head of you.
I am hell bound for the things I’ve done to try and forget you and this countryline
