March in the dark
Down a road I shouldn't walk alone
Too broke to call a cab
Too stubborn to let her drive me home
My steps ring out defiantly in perfect time
Stakin' my claim down the double yellow line
My self-taught self-sufficiency
Is gonna be my downfall
Repeatin' all my mistakes
Is how I learn
Right when I think I'm invincible
I find I'm not so tough at all
But the holes in my right brain reasons
Ain't your concern
Prayin' it comes up roses while I still got time to burn
I've broken my back for much less than a guarantee
Seems like every town I sleep in steals a little piece of me
Brothers they carried me when my ship was sinkin' low
I still need 'em now but I'd die before I'd tell 'em so
My self-taught self-sufficiency
Is gonna be my downfall
Repeatin' all my mistakes
Is how I learn
Right when I think I'm invincible
I find I'm not so tough at all
But the holes in my right brain reasons
Ain't your concern
Prayin' it comes up roses while I still got time to burn
Yeah I've known these cold Virginia roads
But I can't recall their names
After a while all the beauty and the silence hits me the same
And that funeral home sits silently starin'
At the church across the street
And I'm in between, I'm somewhere between
My self-taught self-sufficiency
Is gonna be my downfall
Repeatin' all my mistakes
Is how I learn
Oh and right when I think I'm invincible
I find I'm not so tough at all
But the holes in my right brain reasons
Ain't your concern
Prayin' it come up roses
I still got time to burn, yeah
