[Verse 1]
Kelly Mountain Road saw a heavy load
With a sagging heart and a break apart
Voices in me stood as thick as thieves
With no sympathy for the beggars art

[Verse 2]
I have passed these pines 'bout a million times
Effortlessly
Now I grip the wheel, fear is what I feel
At the slow unraveling of me
(Ah, ah)

[Chorus]
But you tell me it's temporary, it's a matter of time
By God, don't you think I know it's in my mind?
And it's right over left and healing the then
I'll soon be to nothing but I don't know when

[Verse 3]
Well, the way I flee on my crooked feet (Daylight)
Barn happy horse on a one-track course (Fading)
Then I self despise cryin' out my eyes (Daylight)
'Cause the happy trail led me to remorse (Fading)

[Verse 4]
But the road is long and the song is gone
I blow empty in my cicada shell
If I saw my choice I might find my voice
But I don't know when and I just can't tell
(Ah, ah)
[Chorus]
But you tell me it's temporary, it's a matter of time
By God, don't you think I know it's in my mind?
It's right over left and healing the then
I'll soon be to nothing but I don't know when

[Verse 5]
Deep behind my face is a safer place
But old gears are hitched tight to the gate
It's a daily grind waiting to unwind
'Til I hear that click that unlocks my fate
(Ah, ah)

[Chorus]
Yeah, but you tell me it's temporary and it's a matter of time
By God, don't you think I know it's in my mind?
It's right over left and healing the then
I'll soon be to nothing but I don't know when
I'll soon be to nothing but I don't know when
I'll soon be to nothing but I don't know when
