VERSE
There's a cold wind coming through the window
And your picture's still hanging on the wall
I've been drinking coffee at midnight
Trying not to think about it all
This old house knows every secret
Every promise that we broke I hear your footsteps in the hallway
But it's only shadows talking to me now
I got a heart full of places I don't ever wanna go
memory of your goodbye that I can't outrun alone
CHORUS
VERSE
I've been driving these back roads trying to outrun your name
There's a stone inside my chest
And a fire underneath my skin I don't know where heaven is
INSTRUMENTAL
VERSE
Got two boots by the doorway
One jacket hanging by the stair
I keep telling everybody I don't care
But the truth comes out of two ways
When the whole damn town's still
I swear I hear you whisper from somewhere
past that old window sill I got scars beneath my silence
I got thunder in my bones
BRIDGE
Some roads don't lead you home, boy
Some roads just teach you how to run
CHORUS
I'm lonely God knows I try to change
Been drivin' these back roads, tryin' to outrun your name
There's a storm inside my chest
And a fire underneath my skin I don't know where heaven is
INSTRUMENTAL
VERSE
Maybe I was too damn stubborn
Maybe you were tired of trying
Maybe love don't always disappear
Maybe it just changes where it's hiding
So I leave the porch light burning
Though I know you won't come through
Some part of me still believes
There's a little good left in me too
CHORUS
I've walked through every shadow
And I danced inside the rain
If tomorrow brings forgiveness
I'll meet it halfway there
I'm still carrying your memory
But I don't have to live inside despair
knows that I'm lonely tonight
But I ain't giving up the fight
OUTRO
Cold wind through the window
But it don't own me anymore
