I remember what you told me, said drinking was unholy
So Lord, can you pour me to the creek?
And I still keep it with me, took under all the memories
Your voice echoing throughout those trees
And through all unfavored weather and hoes in the leather
These boots still covered in tar
I'm still praying to the heavens
And hoping for a better day

And for them sevens, but hope only gets a man so far
Well, this game of life plays heavy on my heart
And love is tough, but loneliness is twice as hard
And I can't read that about everywhere I go
They say prayer sure makes diamonds out of the head of my stickhole
But I've seen heaven without dying with the devil
Without trying and they both say they wanna talk to me
But I'm all out of luck
And I'm down with my dreams
They were *** out with stuff
I'm trying to land on my feet
Well, this game of life plays heavy on my heart



Life plays heavy on my heart And love itself alone is twice as hard
And I can't read that, but everywhere I go They say prayers are mixed on us
I let them, I still go
And every day is getting colder Since that day in October
When you told me it was over, so I left
Cause if you need me, well I told you I'm on the better side
It's over, I'm trying to find a four-leaf clover Get me out of this mess
This game of life plays heavy on my heart And love itself alone is twice as hard
And I can't read that, but everywhere I go
They say prayers are mixed on us
How the hell
This game of life plays heavy on my heart And love itself alone is twice as hard
And I can't read that, but everywhere I go
They say prayers are mixed on us
I let them, I still go
I let them, I still go
