[Verse 1] I was walkin’ when the road went black Moon gone quiet, no way back He was standin’ where the dirt runs wide Grin like fire, eyes like night [Pre-Chorus] Said, “Boy, you look like you’ve been bruised” Said, “Truth is just another noose” I shook his hand, I made that trade Now I can’t hear the prayers I prayed [Chorus] Now I’m lost — at the edge of my name Sold my soul just to feel no shame He gave me rhythm, gave me fire Took my peace and fed desire Yeah, I’m lost — no light, no grace Just a song in a broken place And every note I ever played Belongs to the deal I made [Verse 2] He said love is a cage with gold Said the blues ain’t bought — it’s sold Gave me fame that burns too slow Now I’m the king no one knows [Pre-Chorus] He laughs inside my every chord Drinks my tears when I get bored I walk with charm, I sing with pain But the road don’t lead home again [Chorus] Now I’m lost — with a smile on my face Carved from guilt, dressed in lace He gave me heat, he gave me stage But locked my heart inside a cage Yeah, I’m lost — and the echo’s mine Can’t go back, can’t stop the climb And even if I break these chains I still bleed his name [Bridge] He said, “Every man comes here alone Wantin’ truth but takin’ stone” I asked for sound, I asked for fame Now I just sing his name [Final Chorus] Now I’m lost — but the fire feels right Burns so slow, but it feeds the night He walks with me in every chord The devil’s breath behind each word Yeah, I’m lost — and that’s the price He took my soul but gave me life The road was mine… until we crossed Now I’m his And I’m lost
