Feeling old? Nah. You're earning the fade.

Earn the Fade

My bullet hole
Is a place to hide
Just try and get me out

But don't be surprised
When I clamp on your hand
And get your rabies shot

You know what they say about gift horses' mouths
Well, I'll look right in and reject it right out
Blame it on you for my spit in your face
Cause I'm hell-bent determined and I'm earning the fade

There's a place up the road
Where I get my fill
The boards are black

If I'm not there
Then call off the search
Cause I ain't coming back

Got some time to sow my oats and see
Maybe this isn't what's right for me
Hope that these hard lines won't get in the way
Cause I'm hell-bent determined and I'm earning the fade

Ever been to Four Points
Well, let's go for a ride
The city looks so small from way up here
I think I'll go ahead and dive into the wind
And if I can I'll take along all my friends
It's just a rough patch, I'll make it through okay
It I weren't hell-bent determined on earning the fade


Feeling low but it’s under control
Yeah, there's another stripe and I'm earning the fade
My thin soul can't take it any more
There is no redemption when you're earning the fade
Growing old ain't graceful to behold
I've got another line and I'm earning the fade
Letting go when it's going down the hole
I can't be bothered cause I'm earning the fade
Heavy is this load but we need more stones
What's a deep scar when you're earning the fade
It's shiny gold but it all corrodes
I'm hell-bent determined and I'm earning the fade
