Lonesome Broken Road

Verse 1
The sun's a faded nickel on a highway stretch of grey
My boots are on the dash, I got nothin' left to say
The radio's just static, a preacher and the news
I'm chewin' on the memory of my last night with you
A half-tank of forgiveness and a map I can't believe
Just point this old sedan toward the next town I can leave

Chorus
It's dust and desire, a dynamic and a wire
A hundred miles between me and a home I never know
Smoke and salvation, a whispered conversation
With every ghost I carry down this lonesome, broken road
Yeah, this lonesome, broken road

Verse 2
Stopped at a junction diner, the coffee's thick as tar
The waitress calls me "honey," shows me where the good feelings are
She's seen a thousand faces, all hungry, all alone
Just lookin' for a beacon, a frequency, a home
She pours a little extra, says, "The rain's headin' east"
A simple act of kindness is a salvaged piece of peace

Chorus
It's dust and desire, a dynamic and a wire
A hundred miles between me and a home I never know
Smoke and salvation, a whispered conversation
With every ghost I carry down this lonesome, broken road
Yeah, this lonesome, broken road

Bridge
I've chased the neon promise, I've knelt on marble floors
I've rattled every cage and I've knocked on every door
But the truth ain't in the palace, it ain't in the debtor's cell
It's in the hum of tires on the asphalt, and the stories that we tell...

Verse 3
The storm clouds broke to sunset, the road's a river of gold
A weight I didn't mention finally loosens its hold
Maybe home ain't a structure, maybe it's just a line
You keep drawin' through the chaos, 'til the stars and the signs align
I might not find an answer, but I'm learning how to steer
By the rhythm of the wipers and the things I hold dear

Final Chorus
It's dust and desire, a dynamic and a wire
A hundred miles between me and a home I finally know
Smoke and salvation, a whispered celebration
For every ghost I carry down this lonesome, chosen road
Yeah, this lonesome, chosen road!

Lonesome road...
Chosen road...
