Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Pawnshop ring in a dresser drawer
Dust on my name in the hometown bar
Wallet fat once, then thin, then gone
Kept the scars
Spent my twenties in borrowed boots
Chased my thirties in a borrowed car
Every win felt like a borrowed suit
That never fit my heart
[Chorus]
Was it worth the wreckage
All that life I laid on the table
All that love I burned for a favor
Tell me, tell me
When the curtain starts to fall
Were the gold and the ghosts and the late nights
Ever worth it at all
[Verse 2]
Old friends look like my father now
Heroes limp when they hit that stage
Voice still growls but the hands shake slow
Can’t outsing age
Woke up rich in an empty house
Echoes louder than the floorboards creak
Counted cash, but I couldn’t count
Anyone who’d hear me speak
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I got nights I’d die to do over
Years I’d rather leave buried deep
Faces I traded for figures
Figures that never did keep
If the bill comes due in the silence
I’ll pay in whatever I’ve got left
Every nightmare, every verse I confess
Hangs heavy on my chest
[Chorus]
