[Verse] Road stretched out longer than my problems, Boots kicked up dust, swallowed my own goblins, Empty bottles line the truck bed, memories of meds, Eatin' pain pills for breakfast, heartaches unfed. [Verse 2] Pills rattlin', pocket full of past sins, Momma’s voice an echo, whisperin’ what might’ve been, Cold nights in a trailer, stars my only ceiling, Cravin’ somethin’ real, numbness ain't a feelin'. [Chorus] Ridin’ through the pain, gas pedal hittin’, Backroads call my name, but I keep slippin’, Empty promises and late-night whiskey sippin’, Gotta break these chains, though my will be rippin’. [Verse 3] Cowboy hat shadowin' eyes full of sorrow, Livin' one day, not seein' no tomorrow, Empty pill bottles dance, a parade of regrets, Pills to make me hollow, but my soul never forgets. [Bridge] Banjo strings and the tires screamin', Cornfields my sanctuary, where demons keep schemin’, Hopin' for salvation in a sundown gleam, Prayin' this pill life nothing but a bad dream. [Chorus] Ridin’ through the pain, gas pedal hittin’, Backroads call my name, but I keep slippin’, Empty promises and late-night whiskey sippin’, Gotta break these chains, though my will be rippin’.
