Life is a battlefield

And it'll drag you right through hell

Bites like a rattlesnake

The kind that you just don't see on the trail

And I miss my father every day

The kinda pain I pray don't fade away

And the ones above guide me down the road

Yeah, grief is only love that's got no place to go

From my great granddad in the ground

All the ghosts in my hometown

Yeah, they're the ones that find me down the road

Yeah, grief is only love that's got no place to go

Grief is only love

The world is a cannonball

You deal with the feelings you can't hide

God gave us alcohol

When we need to leave 'em all inside

And I don't feel like crying

But I just keep crying

For the ones above to guide me down the road

Yeah, grief is only love that's got no place to go

From my great-granddad in the ground

All the ghosts in my hometown

Yeah, they're the ones that find me down the road

Yeah, grief is only love that's got no place to go

Grief is only love

Grief is only love

Grief is only love

I don't feel like crying

But I just keep crying

For the ones above to guide me down the road

Yeah, grief is only love that's got no place to go

So hang onto the hurting

And let it grab a hold

Yeah, the only thing's for certain

Is it's out of my control

And, grief is only love that's got no place to go

Yeah, grief is only love that's got no place to go

Yeah, grief is only love

Grief is only love

Grief is only love

Grief is only love

Grief is only love
