Lyrics
I used to carry the weight on my shoulders once strong
Hands calloused over from the work I’d done
Breathing rust and particulates silica dust that never leaves your lungs
Drove an econoline van till the wheels fell off
Sold for parts to the wrecker got two hundred bucks
Only took what I could carry back it’s a long walk home
Well if it ain’t one thing it’s another
Every hit comes a little bit harder
Yeah I believe this is killing me
See the downside of everything
Days that we can never get back keep passing by
Had a good time with money I shouldn’t spend
Kept the company of strangers I thought were my friends
Waking up on the floor in the clothes I slept in
Never know nothing else
Nothings ever been enough
Nothing ever comes easy
The going stays tough
Undone by the days ena ashamed of the state I’m in
Well if it ain’t one thing it’s another
Every hit comes a little bit harder
Yeah I believe this is killing me
See the downside of everything
Days that we could never get back keep passing by
Yeah let’s leave this city to rust
Never been good enough for them
Days that we could never get back keep passing by
Well I never heard the truth spoken that plain in a throwaway line
And it’s never gonna change living out my days under pitch black skies
