Well I remember what you told me Said drinking was unholy So Lord, can you point me to the creek And I still keep it with me Tucked under all the memories Your voice echoing throughout those trees And through unfavored weather And holes in the leather These boots still covered in tar Well I'm still praying to the heavens And hoping for them 7s But hope only gets a man so far When This game of life plays heavy on my heart and Love is tough but loneliness is twice as hard and I'll carry that 'bout everywhere I go And they say pressure makes diamonds How the hell am I still coal? I've seen heaven without dying Met the devil without trying And they both seem to want to talk to me But I'm all out of luck now And my dreams aren't worth a buck How it's tough tryna land on my feet When This game of life plays heavy on my heart and Love is tough but loneliness is twice as hard and I'll carry that 'bout everywhere I go And they say pressure makes diamonds How the hell am I still coal? And every day is getting colder Since that day in October When you told me it was over, so I left 'Cause if you need me, well I told ya I'm on the better side of sober Tryna find a four leaf clover to get me out of this mess This game of life plays heavy on my heart and Love is tough but loneliness is twice as hard and I'll carry that 'bout everywhere I go And they say pressure makes diamonds How the hell... This game of life plays heavy on my heart and Love is tough but loneliness is twice as hard and I'll carry that 'bout everywhere I go And they say pressure makes diamonds How the hell am I still coal?
