Road Taught Me

Left my youth on mile markers, Dreams got buried in the sand. Watched my hope in rearview mirrors, That’s when the road taught me who I am.

That’s how the road taught me, To stop givin’ a damn. My gospel’s written on blacktop, My faith’s the diesel span. That’s how the road taught me, To stop givin’ a damn.

Sold my heart for a tank of fuel, Every town just looks the same. Tried to care, but it broke me down, Now the highway don’t know my name.

That’s how the road taught me, To stop givin’ a damn. Where promises turn to ashes, And love slips through your hand. That’s how the road taught me, To stop givin’ a damn.

No savior waits in distance, No hand to guide my hand…

That’s how the road taught me, To stop givin’ a damn. It burned my soul to gravel, And carved me into man. That’s how the road taught me, To stop givin’ a damn.
