There's a fire on the mountain

There's a fire in my soul

There's a sign on the highway

It's a hard road



There's a break in a heart

There's a break in a bone

There's a ghost in the dark

It's a hard road



There's blood in the kitchen

In the shape of a sin

There's a ship in the water

But it ain't coming in

There's a fall of an angel

At the end of the show

But who's gonna save my soul

It's a hard road



There's a heavy jacket

There's a heavy load

There's a weight on my shoulders

It's a hard road



There's a howl at the backdoor

There's a howl in the cold

There's a broken bottle

It's a hard road



There's blood in the kitchen

In the shape of a sin

There's a ship in the water

But it ain't coming in

There's a fall of an angel

At the end of the show

But who's gonna save my soul

It's a hard road



There's a strange feeling coming over me

Hollow eyes misery

There's someone at the backdoor

There's someone in the cold

God save my soul

It's a hard road
