[Intro - Guitar Solo] (Heavy, distorted guitar solo - fuzzy, doom-laden riff with bluesy bends) [Verse 1] Cigarette burns on the kitchen floor Whiskey bottle rolling, I don't lock the door The mirror cracks when I walk on by Something in my shadow learned to lie [Verse 2] Mama's Bible gathering dust on the shelf I traded salvation for something else The highway hums like a funeral song Every mile I'm running, the chain grows long [Chorus] Heavy soul, dragging through the mud Iron in my veins where there used to be blood Can't outrun what lives inside the bone Heavy soul, I'm carrying it home [Verse 3] Your photograph face-down on the dash Lightning in the rearview, thunder and ash I wore your love like a second skin Now I'm just the ghost of what might've been [Verse 4] The preacher man said I'd find the light But the only thing I find is another fight Knuckles scarred and the jukebox plays A song about a man who lost his way [Chorus] Heavy soul, dragging through the mud Iron in my veins where there used to be blood Can't outrun what lives inside the bone Heavy soul, I'm carrying it home [Bridge] The devil don't knock, he just walks on in Sits at your table, calls himself a friend I poured him a drink, I poured him two Now I can't remember which one of us is true [Guitar Solo] (Wailing, bluesy solo with heavy distortion and slow bends - raw and cathartic) [Chorus] Heavy soul, dragging through the mud Iron in my veins where there used to be blood Can't outrun what lives inside the bone Heavy soul, I'm carrying it home [Outro] Heavy soul... (Guitar fades with a slow, doom-laden riff) Heavy soul... I'm carrying it home
