[Verse] Wheels spun wild like a madman’s chase Hit the ground Oh the asphalt's embrace Skin kissed gravel A fiery sting Blood sang out A crimson ring [Prechorus] Gravel bites deep It don’t let go Bleeding proof of the things I don’t know [Chorus] Gravel and soap Tearing my skin Scrubbing me down Where do I begin Bits of me left on the road I rode Gravel and soap The pain overflowed [Verse 2] Nurses glare Gloves snapping tight Lights above burn surgical white A bristled brush Oh it digs in deep No mercy given No time to weep [Prechorus] Debris like memories Stuck in my skin They pull each one I feel it begin [Chorus] Gravel and soap Tearing my skin Scrubbing me down Where do I begin Bits of me left on the road I rode Gravel and soap The pain overflowed [Bridge] White lights hum The ER's glare Nurses smile But the sting is unfair Soap suds rising Bristles scrape deep Gravel whispers secrets I can’t keep
