The Low Road

Leaving tomorrow, I’ve done all I can here
Better to say goodbye than slowly disappear
I see you crying, but I don’t see any pain
And as I go, I hope you know
That you’re the one to blame

Ain’t never been all that big on forgiveness
I’d rather walk away than hear you lie
And if you ever loved me
God knows it never showed
So for my heart’s sake I think I’ll take the low road

I don’t need money, I don’t need fancy clothes
And looking back I could have wished for something better I suppose
I’m not gonna stay around and go through this again
I’ve still got pride here on my side
No shame in giving in

Ain’t never been all that big on forgiveness
I’d rather walk away than hear you lie
And if you ever loved me
God knows it never showed
So for my heart’s sake I think I’ll take the low road

The low road is calling me
The low road will set you free

And I’m leaving tomorrow
I’ve packed a bag for you
I hope you come with me but I don’t expect you to
We’ve been through enough and by the time I end this song
I’ve gotten wise, I realize I’ve already stayed too long

Still, I ain’t never been all that big on forgiveness
I’d rather walk away than hear you lie
And if you ever loved me
Can’t say it ever showed
So for my heart’s sake I think I’ll take the low road

For my heart’s sake I think I’ll take the low road
