Verse 1]The highway ends in a field of rusted steelA dark country road where the shadows feel realLeft my hometown with a storm in my chestHunting for a signal that would give me some restThe neon horizon is starting to bleedAnd the static in the air is the only thing I need[Chorus]And I’m writing my story in the ashes and dustA rolling stone covered in industrial rust!They wanted a cowboy but I brought the sparkTo burn this whole valley down into the dark!Yeah, hear the thunder crying out my nameMet a stranger in the rain under factory smokeWith eyes like blue lightning, he laughed as he spokeSaid „Son, you can’t run from the ghost in your mindThe machine's gonna take what you're leaving behind“So I cranked up the amps and I let the slides screamJust a heavy rock outlaw in a digital dream[Chorus]And I’m writing my story in the ashes and dustA rolling stone covered in industrial rust!They wanted a cowboy but I brought the sparkTo burn this whole valley down into the dark!Yeah, hear the thunder crying out my name![Harmonica and Guitar Solo] (Distorted blues harmonica dueling with a heavy grunge guitar, backed by a massive, punching drum beat)
