Soul HitchHiker - Desolation Hero

This life breaks my bones and it crushes my soul till I'm breathing steel
In town lights are bright, I can't reach them tonight - no I'm going down
Hard choices made with the best of intentions
Cut the wrong way and now I'm defenseless
Left at the gate - left with the pieces

Peel away the paint, peel away the chrome
Get down to the bones - desolation hero

Hello friend, can you tell me where all our heroes went
Used to be the songs we sang promised everything
Troubled angels have captured my soul
Lift me up through the night to where Gabriel blows
And the band starts up funky like Muscle Shoals

Desolation Hero

There's a broken down car on Twin City Highway - she was looking bad
She once was a beauty, she carried some dreams in crushed velvet seats
She was fast, she was sleek, she was straight, she was true
She was you
Oh-oh, she was you

Peel away the paint, peel away the chrome
Get down to the bones - desolation hero
