Cold Black Mile

[Verse 1]

This one went deep, these wounds will last

This one's more than just the past

This one's still here, it fills up these rooms

Everything I see around here reminds me of you

It's a war I fight every night

Out here alone on the cold black mile

[Chorus]

It's in the grey of the mornin', it's in the sound of her name

It's in the walls of that home where we lived where the love just couldn't stay

And this might be the hardеst thing I'll ever have to survivе

It's time to walk down the cold black mile

[Verse 2]

I was on the front lines, yeah, you watched me retreat

But when I came back busted and broken, I was still standin' on my feet

No, I'm not on my knees anymore, I ain't prayin' for some open door

Waitin' for somethin' we both know just don't belong here anymore

I'll take the pain, feel it grow inside

It's all I can carry on the cold black mile

[Chorus]

It's in the pain without answers, it's in the things you can't change

It's in the callin' it forever, but then the words just blow away

And I might die a thousand times, but I know I can survive

I'll just keep on pushin' down the cold black mile

[Outro]

(Ooh)

(Ooh)

It might've taken everything, but it gave me back my life

Mornin' is breakin' now on the cold black mile
