SHOULDERS
ONCE, AN INNOCENCE RULED
IT'S SOMEWHERE IN THE WRECKAGE OF MY SOUL
WORN BY MENACING ROADS
BUT SOMEHOW IT STILL FLICKERS IN THE COLD
CHORUS:
MY WEARY SHOULDERS HAVE BATTLED TIME
MY CHIP IS WORN AND DIMMED IT'S LIGHT
BUT I WILL NOT GROW OLD WITHOUT A FIGHT
AND I WILL NOT LET GO OF THE YOUTH
THAT STILL RIDES ON THESE SHOULDERS
ONCE, A LIE HAD BEEN SOLD
I WORE IT WITH CONVICTION ON MY BROW
WE, WE NEVER WOULD FOLD
AND SWORE BY GOD WE'D NEVER COME DOWN
BUT I AM FEELING THE TOLL
THOUGH I WON'T BURN OUT
NO I WON'T BURN OUT
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
AS THE DUST COMPOUNDS, COMPOUNDS
I STILL GO ROUND AFTER ROUND
CHORUS
