I poured out my heart and soul You drained me dry and I hit the road I gave you everything, but your diamond eyes refused to gleam Nothing left to lose, even less to say Light up the sky in search of better days The end of times filled with blue and grey I burned it all and made it through the haze I'm not afraid to suffer There's hurting in the heartland today You spent it all and took me for all I was worth You cut me so deep and you made sure it hurt Nothing left to lose, even less to say Light up the sky in search of better days The end of times filled with blue and grey I burned it all and made it through the haze I'm not afraid to suffer There's hurting in the heartland today I tore down these four white walls That you built to close me off Nothing hurts like love and loss But the medicine is in these songs
