Coal - Dylan Gossett

Lyrics by：Dylan Gossett

Composed by：Dylan Gossett

Well I remember what you told me

Said drinkin' was unholy

So Lord can You point me to the creek

And I still keep it with me

Tucked under all the memories

Your voice echoin' throughout those trees

And through unfavored weather

And holes in the leather

These boots still covered in tar

Well I'm still prayin' to the heavens

And hopin' for them sevens

But hope only gets a man so far when

This game of life plays heavy on my heart and

Love is tough but loneliness is twice as hard and

I'll carry that 'bout everywhere I go

And they say pressure makes diamonds how the hell am I still coal

Now I've seen Heaven without dyin'

Met the Devil without tryin'

And they both seem to wanna talk to me

But I'm all outta luck now

And my dreams aren't worth a buck

How it's tough tryin' to land on my feet when

This game of life plays heavy on my heart and

Love is tough but loneliness is twice as hard and

I'll carry that 'bout everywhere I go

And they say pressure makes diamonds how the hell am I still coal

When every day is gettin' colder

Since that day in October

When you told me it was over so I left

'Cause if you need me well I told ya

I'm on the better side of sober

Tryin' to find a four-leaf clover

To get me out of this mess

This game of life plays heavy on my heart and

Love is tough but loneliness is twice as hard and

I'll carry that 'bout everywhere I go

And they say pressure makes diamonds how the hell

This game of life plays heavy on my heart and

Love is tough but loneliness is twice as hard and

I'll carry that 'bout everywhere I go

And they say pressure makes diamonds how the hell am I still coal
