Lyrics

[Verse 1] Grew up under yellow light on the street Putting too much faith in the make-believe And another high school football team The neighbor's brother came home in a box But he wanted to go, so maybe it was his fault Another red heart taken by the American dream [Pre-Chorus] And I feel it there In the middle of the night When the lights go out And I'm all alone again [Chorus] Say what you want, but say it like you mean it With your fists for once, a long cold war With your kids at the front Just give it one more day, then you'rе done, done I do what I want, crying in the blеachers And I said it was fun I don't need anything from anyone It's just not my year But I'm all good out here [Verse 2] Sunday morning Hands over my knees in a room full of faces I'm sorry if I seemed off, but I was probably wasted (Probably wasted) And didn't feel so good (Didn't feel so good) A life full of whiskey but I always deliver Jesus, if you're listening let me handle my liquor And Jesus, if You're there Why do I feel alone in this room with You? [Pre-Chorus] And I feel it there In the middle of the night When the lights go out But I'm still standing here [Chorus] Say what you want, but say it like you mean it With your fists for once, a long cold war With your kids at the front Just give it one more day, then you're done, done I do what I want, crying in the bleachers And I said it was fun I don't need anything from anyone It's just not my year But I'm all good out here [Outro] Say what you want, but say it like you mean it With your fist for once, a long cold war With your kids at the front Just give it one more day, then you're done I do it for my daddy and I do it for Dale I'm doing what I want and damn, I'm doing it well For me, for me For me, for me
