Hell Ain’t Far

Ain’t no signs past the canyon bend, Just dirt and sky and how it ends I rode too long to turn around — Now even silence makes a sound

Hell ain’t far, and I ain’t fast But I don’t beg, and I don’t ask If fire comes, it comes for me — I’m what I chose, not who I’d be Let the reaper light his cigar — Hell ain’t far

I buried friends I didn’t deserve, Watched lovers fade like prayers unheard But I kept ridin’, stone and dust — Chasin’ things that don’t need trust

Hell ain’t far, I seen its glow Ain’t no saints on this here road If there’s a gate, I’ll pass it by — The only heaven is her goodbye So let the stars be where they are — Hell ain’t far
