Only Son Lyrics
I used to be an only son
my heart was but a stranger
it wallowed in the races won
born to crave the petty dangers
and it sat alone and pined and pondered
all the chosen roads it had to wander
well I used to be an only son
yeah my heart was but a gambler
oh heavy as a loaded gun
it howled above the weather
and its evil ways let me forget her
and this dirty blood will burn forever
in us together
I used to be an only son
yeah my heart was but a gambler
oh heavy as a loaded gun
it howled above the weather
and its evil ways let me forget her
and this dirty blood will burn forever
in us together
my heart was but a stranger
it wallowed in the races won
born to crave the petty dangers
and it sat alone and pined and pondered
all the chosen roads it had to wander
yeah my heart was but a gambler
oh heavy as a loaded gun
it howled above the weather
and its evil ways let me forget her
and this dirty blood will burn forever
in us together
yeah my heart was but a gambler
oh heavy as a loaded gun
it howled above the weather
and its evil ways let me forget her
and this dirty blood will burn forever
in us together
