Lyrics
When I need space that's where I go
A place to escape that nobody knows
Where I feel free to let things go
And face this evil that burdens my soul
(I bring my hatred) I bring my hatred, I pack my pain
(All the emotions) all the emotions I cannot explain
It's where I found God and filled that hole
It's He, myself, and I on that lonely dirt road (on this lonely dirt road)
I needed somewhere to take my mistakes
I didn't want my family to see me cry
They'll never know I'm carrying all of this weight
Dealing with the pressure of trying to provide
No sign of struggle can show on my face
They ask if I'm okay, I just flash 'em a smile
Fire up that engine to take me away
I'm speeding through emotions with every mile
On that road is where I find my peace
I remember daddy told me 'bout some times like these
On that road is where my mind's at ease
I keep driving life away, rejecting change, so (I need, I need, I need, I need)
When I need space that's where I go (space)
A place to escape that nobody knows (a place to escape)
Where I feel free to let things go (to let things go)
And face this evil that burdens my soul
I bring my hatred, I pack my pain (I bring my hatred)
All the emotions I cannot explain (and my emotions)
It's where I found God and filled that hole (I found God, God)
It's He, myself, and I on that lonely dirt road (on this lonely, that lonely dirt road)
I tried my best to plant the seeds
And then I watered everything that was in my life
But as a man, the only flowers that you get
Are when you're six-feet under on the day you die
I think I feel the pain my father felt, it's finally sinking in
Looking back all I see is his eyes (his eyes)
He said that house is not a home unless you build it
On respect with some kids and a loving wife (loving wife)
If these walls could talk, I bet they'd say it's all my fault
That I don't try hard
That I ain't man enough, that I ain't standing up
