Dylan Gossett Coal
[Verse 1]
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 the trees
[Verse 2]
And through unfavored weather
And holes in the leather
These boots still covered in tar
Well I'm praying to the Heavens
And hoping for them sevens
But hope only gets a man so far
[Chorus]
When this game of life plays heavy on my heart
And love is tough, but lonlinеss is twice as hard
And I'll carry that 'bout everywhеre I go
They say pressure makes diamonds
How the hell am I still coal
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Now 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 trying to land on my feet
[Chorus]
When this game of life plays heavy on my heart
And love is tough, but lonliness is twice as hard
And I'll carry that 'bout everywhere I go
They say pressure makes diamonds
How the hell am I still coal
[Bridge]
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
Trying to find a four leaf clover
To get me out of this mess
[Chorus]
This game of life plays heavy on my heart
And love is tough, but lonliness is twice as hard
And I'll carry that 'bout everywhere I go
They say pressure makes diamonds
How the hell...
[Chorus]
This game of life plays heavy on my heart
And love is tough, but lonliness is twice as hard
And I'll carry that 'bout everywhere I go
They say pressure makes diamonds
How the hell am I still coal
