Lyrics

Bang

[Verse 1: Broadside]

Hang my head out the window, watching the cars go

Hoping that one of them would change my life

They say it’s all that ego keeping your feet cold

I should listen to my daddy’s advice

I bite my tongue until the blood is running down my chest

A long pursuit of happiness but left with something less

Thought I’d be more than just the ghost of who I’d never been

I'm tripping up with no luck in this dance with death

[Pre-Chorus: Broadside]

I hear it, I hear it, I hear it in my head

I hear it, I hear it, I hear that voice again

[Chorus: Broadside]

Bang, bang, bang, the reaper’s at my door

And I don’t wanna run anymore

Bang, bang, bang, the reaper’s at my door

And I don’t wanna run, I don't wanna run anymore

[Post-Chorus: Broadside]

(Bang, bang, bang, the reaper, the reaper)

(Bang, bang, bang, the reaper, the reaper)

[Verse 2: Joshua Roberts & Broadside]

I tried to bottle up sorrow, save some for tomorrow (-morrow)

Praying that whiskey Jesus saves my life

I’m checking in on my demons to see how they’re feeling (feeling)

My momma showed me how to lose a fight

She tried to warn me, I was sinking in the deeper end

Mouthful of chalk, but I didn’t ever wanna swallow it

And even if my world’s not coming to a bitter end

I couldn’t stand the taste of it, I need more than a sedative

[Chorus: Broadside]

Bang, bang, bang, the reaper’s at my door

And I don’t wanna run anymore

Bang, bang, bang, the reaper’s at my door

And I don’t wanna run, I don't wanna run anymore

Bang, bang, bang, the reaper’s at my door

And I don’t wanna run anymore

Bang, bang, bang, the reaper’s at my door

And I don’t wanna run, I don't wanna run anymore

[Outro: Broadside]

(Bang, bang, bang, the reaper, the reaper)

(Bang, bang, bang, the reaper, the reaper)

I said no, I don't wanna run anymore

(Bang, bang, bang, the reaper, the reaper)

(Bang, bang, bang, the reaper, the reaper)

I said no, I don’t think I’ll run anymore
