Lyric Nashville

As i drive from your pearly gates i realize that i just can t stay all those mountains they kept you locked inside and hid the truth from my slighted eyes i came to you with a half-open heart dreams upon my back illusions of a brand-new start nashville can t i carry the load is it my fault i can t reap what i sow? nashville did you give me half a chance with your southern style and your hidden dance? all those voices they whisper through my walls they talk of falling fast they say i m losing it all they say i m running blind to a love of my own but i ll be walking proud I m saving what i still own i fell on my knees to kiss your land but you are so far down i can t even see to stand nashville you forgot the human race you see with half a mind what colors hide the face nashville i d like to know your fate i d like to stay awhile but i ve seen your lowered state today i m leaving but i ve got all these debts to pay we all owe our dues i ll pay in some other place i never ask that you pay me back we all arrive
with more i left with less than i had your town is made for people passing through a last chance for cause well i thought i knew nashville tell me what you gonna do with your southern style it ll never pull you through nashville i can t place no blame but if you forget my face i ll never call your name again i fell on my knees to kiss your land but you are so far down i can t even see to stand nashville you forgot the human race you see with half a mind what colors hide the face nashville i d like to know your fate i d like to stay awhile but i ve seen your lowered state today i m running away
