Gallows Lyrics - Carry The Fire - Dustin Kensrue

[Verse 1] 

You work like every nail sunk 

Every floorboard laid 

Is another deed erased 

Another debt that's paid 

Like every story you've erected's gonna raise you up 

So you keep slaving but it never seems to be enough 

[Pre-Chorus] 

And now you're scared that it's all gonna crash to the ground 

So you tied a knot and started climbing your way down 

When you find that you've come to the end of your rope 

Take a look and see where you were putting all your hope 

[Chorus] 

Cause you built these gallows you've been hanging from 

You've been holding to a noose 

So just let go, just let go 

You built these gallows you've been hanging from 

And you've got nothing to lose 

So just let go, just let go 

[Verse 2] 

I love the wood's already rotting 

Though you made it gleam 

You've hidden every short cut 

Concealed each crooked seam 

But every flaw will be revealed 

Each imperfection shown 

Oh, I can hear the wind howl and the timber groan 

[Pre-Chorus] 

[Chorus] (x3)
