The Divorcees - Drop of Blood

There's a drop of blood for every mile of this dirty trail
And I need to tell you all the miserable details
For all the miles I travelled not one fond memory
A sad and sorry tale of loss and cruelty
It was too damn hard a winter to be left out in the cold
It's a lonely road to travel when your story's left untold
And every man from time to time has to search his soul
Untangle all the wreckage that begins to take its toll
So drop me at the roadside and I'll find myself a bed
And contemplate the angry words we might have left unsaid
I'll wonder if the mark I made had any worth at all
If in the end I was the one who had to take the fall
Feel I gave a good part of my soul and paid a price
Seems like there was nothing gained and plenty sacrificed
The stories that we told were of lives we never knew
Became a stranger to myself and lost hold of the truth
I felt as though the time had come to leave it all behind
Washed the slate clean of the past in which I stayed confined
What started out so honestly became this sorry tale
There's a drop of blood for every mile of this dirty trail
So drop me at the roadside and I'll find myself a bed
And contemplate the angry words we might have left unsaid
I'll wonder if the mark I made had any worth at all
If in the end I was the one who had to take the fall
So drop me at the roadside and I'll find myself a bed
And contemplate the angry words we might have left unsaid
I'll wonder if the mark I made had any worth at all
If in the end I was the one who had to take the fall
