Sharp Turns, Heavy Roads

Gravel in my teeth

White lines blur and bend

Took that corner way too fast

Lost another friend

Maps burned in the glovebox

Plans tossed in the ditch

Prayer on a cracked lip

Heart on a kill switch

These are sharp turns

Heavy roads

Spinning out

Still I go

Skidding on the edge of hope

But I won't let go

Won't let go

Life hits hard

I hit back

Scars like steel across my tracks

Every break

Every blow

I bend

I bend

I never fold

Job gone in a phone call

Ring cut like a blade

Mama sick

Bills stack

Color starts to fade

Screamed at my reflection

"Is this all I am?"

Echo in a rusted room

Still answered

"I am"

These are sharp turns

Heavy roads

Spinning out

Still I go

Skidding on the edge of hope

But I won't let go

Won't let go

Life hits hard

I hit back

Scars like steel across my tracks

Every break

Every blow

I bend

I bend

I never fold

[Halftime stomp

Gang shouts]

If fate keeps throwing flames (let it burn)

I'll walk out through the smoke (I return)

If all I have is pain

Then pain will make me grow

These are sharp turns

Heavy roads

Spinning out

Still I go

Skidding on the edge of hope

But I won't let go

Won't let go

Life hits hard

I hit back

Scars like steel across my tracks

Every break

Every blow

I bend

I bleed

I grow

I bend

I bend

I never fold
