Back Road

Talk is cheap
If you want it
I ain’t buying a word you’re selling
Cause I been round here too long
To see the truth in the light of day

And every time that you come ‘round here I get uneasy
And the hate that you’re spilling round here
It’s only gonna fall on deaf ears

We’re slipping down this back road
Trying to stand strong
Heading toward this black hole
Got me crying No No No
Down this back road
Trying to stand strong
Toying with the devil
How could we be so very wrong

With your fear you gain power
Together we stand, yet divided we gonna fall
Putting up fences instead of building bridges
But now that writing is on the wall
And every time that you come ‘round here I get uneasy
And that hate that you’re spilling round here
I can hardly hold back my tears

We’re slipping down this back road
Trying to stand strong
Heading toward this black hole
Got me crying No No No
Down this back road
Trying to stand strong
Toying with the devil
How could we be so very wrong
