Travelin’ Light
[Verse 1: Dierks Bentley]
I used to carry my past like a duffel bag
It's been hurting my head and breaking my back
But when you live in the rear view you just crash
Oh, I'm done carrying my past like that
[Chorus: Both]
I'm travelling light
I'm laying it down
All those demons I keep dragging round
I'm cutting the ties
I'm dropping the weight
With all my hurt and my regrets and my mistakes
I'm tired of living unforgiven
So i'm travelling light
Oh, I'm travelling light
[Verse 2: Brandi Carlile]
Don't lay the blame on anyone else
I'm always last to forgive myself
Well starting over is overdue
And these old boots sure feel brand new
[Chorus: Both]
I'm travelling light
I'm laying it down
All those demons I keep dragging round
I'm cutting the ties
I'm dropping the weight
With all my hurt and my regrets and my mistakes
I'm tired of living unforgiven
So I'm travelling light
Oh, I'm travelling light
[Bridge: Both]
All I'm gonna take it a little bit of faith
And it's all gonna be alright
I only got room for some love and some truth
And a little bit of peace of mind
[Chorus: Both]
So I'm travelling light
And I'm laying it down
All those demons, I left 'em buried in the ground
I'm cutting the ties
I'm dropping the weight
I got a one way ticket towards them better days
I'm tired of living unforgiven
So I'm travelling light
Oh, I'm travelling light
I'm travelling light
