Lyrics

[Intro] It's the skin and bones that keep me on the road The shoulderblades of a beast that haunts my soul Wandering lonely and scared I live the tragedy I shared [Verse 1] It's quick to drag you in but hard to shake A gift that doesn't match how much it takes Growing stronger and loud I lived it but now I'm wanting out [Chorus] I built the fence, I hung the sign Wine red letters saying 'Keep in mind Where I been so don't come in' But how long can you live in shame And drop a life long curse on your own last name The trouble is, I'm used to it [Verse 2] It's the questions that keep me turning back To see those rumors turned to fact Wandering lonely and scared I live the tragedy I shared [Chorus] I built the fence, I hung the sign Blood red letters saying 'Keep in mind Where we've been so don't come in' But how long can we live in shame And drop a life long curse on your own last name The trouble is, we're used to it The trouble is, we're used to it The trouble is, we're used to it [Outro] It's the tin and boards that keep me going home But it's who I am that won't let me alone Growing stronger and loud Growing stronger and loud Growing stronger and loud
