Cigarette ash on my guitar Ring in my pocket and a broken heart Wishing things worked out differently But tonight I'm turning up the whiskey Sorry I'm not a Rockstar Driving in that fancy car Maybe one day you'll know You not in my heart is never so They say if you love them gotta let them go But I'm holding on to this broken rope Like a drive by trucker on the open road With these open containers whistling skynyrd solos I say things I don't mean then I apologize, it's just testosterone and the look in your eyes The thought that I may never see that look again the thought you may say let's just be friends When I think of you I don't think of friends I think of long nights and legs that I don't want to end Dream of the smile dimples and the grin that makes my knees weak that make me want to sin They say if you love them gotta let them go But I'm holding on to this broken rope Like a drive by trucker on this open road With these open containers whistling skynyrd solos Whistling whistling skynyrd solos Whistling whistling skynyrd solos If you love them Got to let them go I'm holding on Wait, don't go

[Verse 1] I woke up with the moonlight, Heavy on my mind, Tried to run from the shadows, But they always seem to find. Whispering through the silence, Saying, “You can't escape this night,” I hear the devil's calling, And he’s standing in the light. [Chorus] Me and the devil, We’re walking side by side, (Adlib: "Yeah... we’re walking...") Into the dark, where the secrets hide, (Adlib: "Secrets hide...") Me and the devil, We’re taking that ride, (Adlib: "Taking that ride...") In the night where the lost souls collide. (Adlib: "Where the lost souls collide...") [Verse 2] I thought I could fight him off, But his grip is cold and tight, Every step that I take now, Feels like I'm fading into the night. He says, “There's no turning back, boy, You’ve sealed your fate tonight,” The road is long and hollow, But there's no end in sight. [Chorus] Me and the devil, We’re walking side by side, (Adlib: "Side by side...") Into the dark, where the secrets hide, (Adlib: "Ohh, secrets hide...") Me and the devil, We’re taking that ride, (Adlib: "We’re taking that ride...") In the night where the lost souls collide. (Adlib: "Oh, where the lost souls collide...") [Bridge] I’ve sold my soul, To the fire in his eyes, (Adlib: "To the fire...") And I can't deny, I’ll follow him till the end of time. (Adlib: "End of time...") There’s no escape, I hear the chains rattle loud, (Adlib: "Chains rattling...") But in the silence, I hear him calling me down. (Adlib: "Calling me down...") [Chorus] Me and the devil, We’re walking side by side, (Adlib: "Side by side...") Into the dark, where the secrets hide, (Adlib: "Where they hide...") Me and the devil, We’re taking that ride, (Adlib: "Taking that ride...") In the night where the lost souls collide. (Adlib: "Lost souls collide...") [Outro] So I'll walk this road forever, With the devil by my side, (Adlib: "By my side...") In the darkness, there's no light, (Adlib: "No light...") Just me and the devil, And the endless night. (Adlib: "Endless night...")

You say that im pretty You’re lying through your teeth Would you treat the prettiest girl the way you treat me Theres a fine line between pretty and sweet On my 16th Confetti and grief Ohh Confetti and grief Ohh Lord tell me the truth Would you still miss me if you knew my youth If you knew the real me If you knew what i would be It would be clear to see Whether im pretty Or if you’re lying through your teeth Mmm Youre lying Through Your teeth

[Verse] When the night falls softly, on this weary town, I sit by my window, with the shades drawn down. The moon's a slow dancer, in a pale-lit haze, Lost in the blues, through smoky, endless days. [Verse 2] The streets keep whisperin', tales of hearts forlorn, A saxophone wails, through the break of dawn. Echoes of a love, that once was so true, Now it's just silence, in the midnight hue. [Chorus] Oh, I'm dancin' with shadows, drinkin' to forget, But memories linger, they ain't left me yet. The rhythm of heartache, beats in two-by-twos, I'm lost in the melody, tangled in the blues. [Bridge] Each corner's a memory, each alley, a dream, I'm searchin' for solace, by the lamplight's beam. The laughter, long faded, like an old refrain, Leaves me with nothin', but a sweet, sad pain. [Verse 3] Evening turns to mornin', stars begin to fade, Yet here I am, my dear, in the spell we made. Your voice, a ghostly whisper, in the melodic muse, Left behind in silence, where the heartache brews. [Chorus] Oh, I'm dancin' with shadows, drinkin' to forget, But memories linger, they ain't left me yet. The rhythm of heartache, beats in two-by-twos, I'm lost in the melody, tangled in the blues.

Well, it’s Christmas Eve, and I know what that means I shouldn’t message you, but here I am, just like I always do Been watchin' every move you make, every video you post Hell, I saw your bio on TikTok—"Girls 4 Life"—what the hell, now you’re gay? Guess that’s why you left me on read, girl, I’m just another fool, But when you leave me out in the cold, hell, I keep runnin’ back With the oldest trick in the book Merry Christmas, dear, from the man you once ghosted I figured it was over, that boy from Japan, you know the one, that nerd You act like you don’t care if he’s catfishin' you or if you end up in some mess But hell, it ain’t my problem now, you made that crystal clear And when he or she hurts you, don’t you dare come back to me, Actually, go ahead, I don’t even care, 'cause here I am, still tryin' The oldest trick in the book Merry Christmas, dear, from the man you once dismissed I hope I ain’t rude, but you’re actin’ kinda prude I’m just tryna help, girl, let me confess Yeah, I think you're kinda cute, but that attitude? Well, I don’t know, You treat me like a toy, say you don’t care at all Look at me now, I’m just like you, still runnin’ back With the oldest trick in the book Merry Christmas, dear, from the man who had your back Yeah, Merry Christmas, dear, from the man who still keeps track

Well, everyone’s a prophet, got the truth to sell, Shoutin’ from the rooftops like they’re breakin’ a spell. “Open your eyes,” they all decree, But it’s the same old chorus in every key. They say they're rebels, standing tall, But they’re all just mirrors in an endless hall. It’s the Echo Chamber Blues, can’t escape the sound, Everybody’s woke, but they’re spinning ‘round and ‘round. Different faces, same old tune, Howling at the sun, but it’s still high noon. They whisper secrets, “It’s all a lie,” But their “hidden knowledge” ain’t so sly. Got a TikTok scholar, a Bitchute sage, Preaching the gospel of a digital age. “Think for yourself,” they all exclaim, While they copy-paste theories without a shame. It’s the Echo Chamber Blues, marching in a line, Everyone’s a skeptic ‘til you question their design. Different banners, same parade, Marching to a beat that they all just made. Oh, critical thinkers, where did you go? Drowned in a sea of what they “know.” Psyops here, psyops there, But their “truths” are lighter than a whisper in the air. So here we are, in the age of doubt, Where everyone’s screaming what they’re sure about. But maybe the truth is a quieter thing, Not a mob, but a bird with a single wing. It’s the Echo Chamber Blues, the anthem we choose, Lost in the noise, it’s a game we all lose.

Well, here I am, all alone, The saddest night that I’ve ever known, She’s out there with my buddy of mine, Guess I blew my chance, I didn't say a line. Now I’m out here, huntin’ deer, Just me and the woods and my last cold beer, And that boy’s got her eyes, I don’t know if it’s his money or his last name, But all I know, I’m stuck in a deer stand. I’m bawlin’ my eyes out, While she’s twirlin’ ‘round the dance floor, Spinnin’ ‘round that old gym floor, I’m sinkin' down to my lowest low, Prayin' for a deer to take the pain, While she prays this night don’t end, Talkin’ like it’s over, While I’m stuck in a deer stand. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, Her daddy don’t like guys like mine, But if he’d take a long look at my eyes, Maybe he’d see we’d be dancin’ all night, But I’m out here in the cold, With nothin’ but this rifle and my heart gone cold, She’s out there laughin’ and havin’ fun, While I’m missin’ out on what could’ve been the one. Yeah, I’m bawlin’ my eyes out, While she’s twirlin’ ‘round the dance floor, Spinnin’ ‘round that old gym floor, I’m sinkin' down to my lowest low, Prayin' for a deer to take the pain, While she prays this night don’t end, Talkin’ like it’s over, While I’m stuck in a deer stand. Well, the hours keep on movin’, The dance floor’s full, she’s smilin' bright, And here I am, just a fool with a rifle, Hoping this night’ll turn out right, But the only thing that’s movin’ now, Is the moonlight shining down, And I can’t get that girl outta my head, While I’m stuck in a deer stand. Yeah, I’m bawlin’ my eyes out, While she’s twirlin’ ‘round the dance floor, Spinnin’ ‘round that old gym floor, I’m sinkin' down to my lowest low, Prayin' for a deer to take the pain, While she prays this night don’t end, Talkin’ like it’s over, While I’m stuck in a deer stand. Well, I guess it’s gettin’ late, She’s still out there dancin’ all night long, But I think I’ve finally found me my deer— POP.

Well, I ain’t been drinking, but hell, I can’t drink, Still, I was thinking 'bout you, and that boy you think’s the one, He don’t care for you like the king of rednecks would, You say you’re happy with a stranger, some nerd who likes Japan, I think it’s kinda gay, but hey, I don’t really mind, You say money can’t hit a ball, But when you were talking to me, seemed like that’s the only thing you cared that I shared. Money can’t buy a prayer, But it can buy your folks outta jail, It can buy you Christmas for the kids and a tree so tall. It can buy a birthday gift, put a smile on your face, But I guess money wasn’t the only thing you needed to see long. Yeah, you told me 'bout your ex, how he sent you a deck, You said you didn’t like it, but I saw the way you smiled, We spent an hour talkin' 'bout him, ‘bout all that he did wrong. But let’s be real, you knew he’d cheat, Still, you took him back, maybe ‘cause you thought you’d seen something. Kept flirting with Greg, even after he showed his ring, Good ol' Greg paid me twenty bucks just to flirt with you. What a deal that was, ain’t it true? But when you told me ‘bout your past, I swore I’d never speak, I’d offer you money, if I said a word. And you told me you were Christian, I’m not one to judge, But you acted like you cared. Maybe you should be careful who you play pretend with, 'Cause money wasn’t the only thing you saw long. Well, I don’t know if I should be mad at ya, But how you gonna ghost the guy you opened up to? Why’d I trust ya, when it was clear— Clearer than most—you were fallin' for that nerd, That guy who loves Japan. Maybe you like women, hell, I don’t know, I don’t care. But the money wasn’t the only thing you wanted to be long.

[Verse] Cidade dorme, eu desperto, vida em slow motion Pensamentos pesam, coração sem promoção Caminho na madrugada, sonhando soluções Sussurros aos cantos, ruídos viram canções [Verse 2] Relógio marca a hora, mas o tempo é ilusão Luzes da cidade refletem solidão Correndo dos fantasmas que eu criei no escuro Dançando com sombras, sinto um pavor tão puro [Chorus] Noite longa, alma sem direção Procurando um acalento dentro do meu refrão Notas tristes, verso em construção Pinto a cidade com a cor da minha emoção [Verse 3] Quebrando os espelhos, evitado meu reflexo Guitarra chora, blues vira o nexo Sentimentos complexos, paixões divididas Fugindo do real, abraço minhas feridas [Bridge] Vozes ecoam, vão fundo na mente A busca do alívio, sempre persistente Notas graves, correm pela coluna Sintetizadores guiam minha fortuna [Verse 4] Amanhece, os sonhos viram vapor Girassóis de concreto e rimas de clamor Memórias esvaem, mas a dor persiste Histórias que contamos, vida que insiste

[Verse] Lights are dim the bar's awake I'm here again for heaven's sake Looking for a lifeline where fires rage Pain spills out from my glass stage [Verse 2] Shadows dancing on the walls Echoes of my heady calls Life’s a blur the pouring's deep Promises are hard to keep [Chorus] Whining for my whiskey feel the burn Every sip a lesson we never learn Drowning sorrows night by night Hoping maybe this time it feels right [Bridge] Silhouettes of memories fade In the amber night parade Hollow laughs and smoky skies Seeking truth in whispered lies [Verse 3] Hollow steps on cracked wood floor Disappearing through the door Eyes that haunt like midnight seas Whiskey dreams and broken pleas [Chorus] Whining for my whiskey feel the burn Every sip a lesson we never learn Drowning sorrows night by night Hoping maybe this time it feels right
