There's a pounding in my head from every run down bar we've left And it carries to my bones Floats in a way that a thunder cloud blows From the no sleep hotel nights to the shame left in my eyes You can come take all I own There's a fire in the kitchen, and it needs to be stoked If you find me stoned and out too late with poison coursin' through my veins It's gonna take more than that to knock me down I've been here damn near a million times, but that ain't ever changed my mind If I can't stand, then I'm gonna stand my ground Maybe it's in my head, I know I left, but I ain't dead yet It's the way you always know, and the way you talk too slow All the things that I can't forget, all the things that make me think of home Find me stoned and out too late with poison coursin' through my veins It's gonna take more than that to knock me down I've been here damn near a million times, but that ain't ever changed my mind If I can't stand, then I'm gonna stand my ground Maybe it's in my head, I know I left, but I ain't dead yet Maybe it's in my head, I know I left, but I ain't dead yet
