Dog's jawbone slung around my neck Kicking at the gravel, feeling like a wreck Looking past my shoulder, waiting for the lights That signify I might just have to put up a fight Rifle's rusted shut; my ribs are showing through But it's alright if I can be with you I took the hard road For your eyes I took the hard road Don't let me walk it alone Now I remember all the dry-humping in the moonlight, kissing your wrists Clutching sweaty palms together, running down the highway from the Wall-eyed pill-popping military solipsists who used to think they had their claws deep in my chest I took the hard road For your thighs I took the hard road Don't let me walk it alone Don't let me walk it alone Young as I was, I am old inside I've walked a thousand years in circles 1 2 3 8 & 5 Worn out, dead tired, haven't eaten in six months Trying not to think of your lips, not even once I took the hard road For your hair I took the hard road For your skin Don't let me walk it alone Sent a telegram to my mother saying I'm coming back I've got a few things to collect before I get on the track Don't know if she's still alive 'cause the streets are sick and dying But I'll make it to you, baby; either way, I won't be crying I took the hard road For your bones I took the hard road For your blood Don't let me walk it Don't let me walk it Don't let me walk it Don't let me walk it alone Now, they say the water makes you go blind But I'll find you with my nose, baby I've got guns and hounds on my heels And I can hear the scraping of their wheels Signs of life are slim or none But then I'm only looking for one Now I'll admit I hadn't planned on this But it's worth it just to taste your kiss Yeah, I'll take the hard road For your eyes I'll take the hard road For your bones I'll take the hard road For your mind I'll take the hard road Even for the hair on it Don't let me walk it Don't let me walk it Don't let me walk it, baby Don't let me walk it alone
