The fire keeps burning, but I’m not learning
Just want to know, what the sound of healing is returning
Sound train riding, like that last game never gonna give up, Till the road drives off the cliff
Oh these hard times, they hangin Round
Round my neck, like a stone
Oh these hard times, they hangin
Round my neck, like a stone
Can’t get ahead, lord. Feels like I’m paying dues all alone
Woke up this morning, got that cold rain on my mind
Troubles at my doorsteps, seem right on time
My heart is a worn out suitcase, dragging down that lonesome line
Sparks jump high, like they are trying to touch the night
Flames talk soft, while their glowing orange light
Circles around the pit, where the stories burn bright
Heat on my hands, making cold times feel right
Oh these hard times, they hangin
Round my neck, like stone
Oh these hard times, they hangin
Round my neck, like stone
Can’t get ahead , lord feels like I’m paying
These dues all alone
