Lyrics

You won all the things that I once coveted
Prizes and accolades, you nailed down the list
You wanted all the things that the others did
Auctioned your soul and the devil, he won the bid
Now I'm walking off the map and I ain't never coming back
Now I swear I love my dad, though he never really had
A reason to hold me or tell me that he loved me
Now I guess I have to swallow my pride
And swim this sea that is both deep and wide
I never died by suicide, but I slept with a pistol by my side
Now I'm walking off the map and I ain't never coming back
They say a fall is preceded by excessive pride
Every word he spoke will tell you that he lied
Now I play a guitar that is electrified
And breathe this good air that is rarefied
Now I'm walking off the map and I ain't never coming back
I realize that my heart has been petrified
And I repeat a story that can't be denied
I never died by suicide, but I slept with a pistol by my side
Now I'm walking off the map and I ain't never coming back
Now I'm walking off the map and I ain't never coming back
