Last Straws

[Verse]
I’ve spent so many years 
travelin’ on my own
But this ol’ country road
seems to wanna take me home

[Verse] 
I brake for old barns built…
and left for picture books
passed so many times... 
but still worth the second looks

There were broken windows…
and scattered dreams
Yeah... I need to accept the blame…
I threw the rocks and then I lost my way
but now I’m back to try again...
one more chance... to fly again

[Piano Solo]

[Chorus]
So take my hand…
lets walk on in
through battered doors… 
of wood and rust…
unsettled on the floors…
and cracks in the walls…
the last straws…
of my memories in the dust

[Bridge]
And I know it’s still my home
but I'm afraid to go inside
Cause that ol’ roof is a fragile cover
for the secrets... that it hides...
I’m not sure I wanna know what happens…
when secrets and memories collide...

[Short Instrumental]

[Verse]
One more mile up the road 
a farm comes into view
favorite trees and dogs had died 
right there where they grew
the house is barely standing 
and the fields are overgrown
a tougher path to love now 
than the ones that I was shown...
the love that we were shown…

[Chorus]
So take my hand…
lets walk on in
through battered doors… 
of wood and rust…
unsettled on the floors…
and cracks in the walls…
the last straws…
of my memories in the dust

[Outro] 
So take my hand
lets walk on in
Cause I know…
I need to stop driving…
Instead of coming and going…
I need… to start arriving
