Rock and a Hard Place - Bailey Zimmerman

And she came to look for me Sold me name and innocence Took my key And told me to follow her down From igor with her bangles and her reference One from the church from the valley of the Well she wanted a haven and a place to hide So I gave her an alibi took her inside but And a rock and a hard place await for for me Between the devil and the deep blue sea Everything I ever did right or wrong Hid out of sight where I belong, belong And I didn't have the heart to tell her why And there wasn't a part of me that Didn't want to say goodbye but 'Cause and effect go hand in hand with The devil may care but I don't mind And I thought she'd never quite understand so I Left her there that night But will she find me? I don't think so, no When you go, you go alone and I'm gone Far away, far away Far away, far away And I didn't have the heart to tell why And there wasn't a part of me That didn't want to say goodbye but A rock and a hard place await for for me Between the devil and the deep blue sea Everything I ever did right or wrong Hid out of sight where I belong, belong A rock and a hard place await for for me Between the devil and the deep blue sea Everything I ever did right or wrong Hid out of sight where I belong, belong A rock and a hard place await for for me Between the devil and the deep blue sea Everything I ever did right or wrong Hid out of sight where I belong, belong

There is a place A time and a space No one can trace That no one can trace Somewhere a hill Where things are still Just rain water spill Just rain water spill Sleep in a dream Of butter milk cream You dance on a beam Dancing on a beam Save me from this shallow land Take me out of temper's hand Drag me from the burning sand Show me those that understand Save me from this shallow land Take me out of temper's hand Drag me from the burning sand Show me those that understand Rest in shade No sound he's made Where silence is played Sound of silence played

There's a secret place I like to go Everyone is there but their face don't show If you get inside, you can't get out "There's no coming back", I hear them shout Welcome to my hideaway, my secret place How I arrived, I can't explain You're welcome, too, if you wanna stay But everyone just runs away There's a secret place I like to go Everyone is there but their face don't show If you get inside, you can't get out "There's no coming back", I hear them shout Let me in, get me out Can't do more than twist and shout Lost my soul without a trace Found it again in my secret place Let me in, get me out Can't do more than twist and shout Lost my soul without a trace In disgrace I hide from those that try to find me Scary things that's right behind me I lost myself, I must confess I can't explain how I got this mess Welcome to my hideaway, my secret place How I arrived, I can't explain You're welcome, too, if you wanna stay But everyone just runs away My secret place (There's a secret place) My secret place (There's a secret place I like to go) My secret place (There's a secret place) Just runs away, my secret place

Stuck in a hard place on a rock I cant't face it Staring at the party I'm looking for love I can't find it Stuck in a hard place on a rock In the darkness and drizzle At the bars, making a pop But all you suckers will fizzle You will fizzle You're missing your memories You can't remember your name You've changed your tune But you've stayed the same Throw off your dead skin Like a chrysalis Metamorphosis No use resisting this Stuck in a hard place on a rock I cant't face it Staring at the party I'm looking for love I can't find it Stuck in a hard place on a rock In the darkness and drizzle At the bars, making a pop But all you suckers will fizzle You will fizzle Your mind is ephemeral You can't remember the game You've peaked too soon But you've stayed the same Throw off your dead weight From the precipice Metamorphosis No use resisting this Stuck in a hard place on a rock I cant't face it Staring at the party I'm looking for love I can't find it Stuck in a hard place on a rock In the darkness and drizzle At the bars, making a pop But all you suckers will fizzle You will fizzle I, I'm crawling higher And you believe the liar (2x)

Left your tracks, runnin' through my front door, oh-oh-oh When you rolled by every night at nine And you're tellin' me, you wanna fix what's broken, oh-oh-oh Yet, you're gone before the morning light You sure know how to shake this house And leave a man restless I love you shouldn't leave your mouth 'Cause that's when things get reckless 'Cause when you're on my mind I drink a little more, yeah, smoke a little more, yeah It's always one last time My engine's on fire, burnin' these tires Yeah, I'm already headed off of these two rails Flyin' straight back to where we fell I wanted the fast track, but now I want you back Since you left, I'm just a trainwreck And all these problems, should've hit 'em head on, girl, oh-oh-oh Instead, we let all the crazy drive And all these memories are hittin' home harder, oh-oh-oh Can't keep my eyes between the yellow lines 'Cause when you're on my mind I drink a little more, yeah, smoke a little more, yeah It's always one last time My engine's on fire, burnin' these tires Yeah, I'm already headed off of these two rails Flyin' straight back to where we fell I wanted the fast track, but now I want you back Since you left, I'm a trainwreck You sure know how to shake this house Leavin' me restless (restless) I love you keeps runnin' its mouth Keepin' us reckless 'Cause when you're on my mind I drink a little more, yeah, smoke a little more, yeah It's always one last time My engine's on fire, burnin' these tires Up and down them County lines Dodgin' every caution light on my way back to you Should've hit the brakes, should've used my mind It's too late, I'm pullin' in your driveway Ain't no getting 'round it tonight, we're a trainwreck

Before this battlefield We were on our way to better days Rolling like a freight train with no brakes into the future like we had it made I can see the smoke rolling off your gun And them lips tellin' me we're done Sometimes some of them shots you just can't outrun When you're living in a warzone With a heart full of bullet holes and boarded up windows We've been riding out this storm for way too long How we gonna call this house a home Living in a warzone Before this battlefield We were fighting on the front lines Now all that I can feel (I can feel, I can feel) Is this heart breaking on the other side And I can see the smoke rolling off your tongue And then lips tellin' me we're falling out of love Sometimes some of them shots you just can't outrun When you're living in a warzone With a heart full of bullet holes and boarded up windows We've been riding out this storm for way too long How we gonna call this house a home Living in a warzone Living in a Warzone With a heart full of bullet holes and boarded up windows We've been riding out this storm for way too long And are we gonna let this love run cold? Living in a Warzone
