[Verse]
Whiskey burns sharp like the years in my veins
Fingers trace the rim of a glass full of pain
He sits across me shadow deep in his stare
Death wears a grin like he don’t even care
[Chorus]
One last round before the lights fade low
One last story before I let it all go
Raise the glass to the life I made
One last drink in the dark parade
[Verse 2]
Fields of sweat blood and dirt on my hands
Built a home where the wild used to stand
Watched my boy grow taller than the trees
Now I sit here beggin’ for a moment’s reprieve
[Chorus]
One last round before the lights fade low
One last story before I let it all go
Raise the glass to the life I made
One last drink in the dark parade
[Bridge]
The scars they told the tale of the fight
Years like smoke gone into the night
Death leans in whispers soft in my ear
The end ain’t somethin’ you should ever fear
[Chorus]
One last round before the lights fade low
One last story before I let it all go
Raise the glass to the life I made
One last drink in the dark parade
