As A Crow Flies

3 o'clock still halfway rocked in the middle of nowhere

Catching long breaths with cigarettes still coughing up my lungs

I sure wish that I could quit the shit if I had a reason why

I'd give it up in heartbeat if it wasn't for this drive

And it's a long way to go

When I've given everything up, what's there really left to show

And I'll tell you son

It's a narrow road when you're on your own, one way in and one way out

As a crow flies

Well I guess what your saying it makes more than perfect sense

I laid it out gave it all up ain't been the same since

The good lord knows I mean well, but I ain't seen him in years

Now I'm sitting here begging please through the overwhelming tears

And it's a long way to go

You can't give it all and have it too guess I'll reap what I sow

And it's not what you planned

Deal a better hand and live life as straight

As a crow flies

What the hell is wrong with me, I've given up my life

Trade it in for a simple plan no damn reason why

I wish I could've given you all the silver and gold

Instead all I leave to you is this thin narrow road

And it's a long way to go

You know some days are harder when you're walking in the snow

And it's a long way to go

Follow me through the storm, and you'll get there in time

As a crow flies

And it's a long way to go

When you gave it all and have it too, don't forget what you know

And it's a long way to go

Deal a better hand and live life as straight

Don't forget where you're from and you'll stay

As a crow flies
