The Hardest Part Is You May Never Know [Double D REMIXES 2015]

by Paul Cargnello

/
1.
In the flats of the earth where the hubcaps spin / passing through Coal City 'till the wheels grow thin / where the roses don't bloom and the low planes fly / we're well past Normal and the train tracks die / My insides split, my heart beats rumbling / trouble with a little “T”, well that's me / you got me talking that's as much as I'll say / but what I got right now can all be taken away / He said “You've been blessed” my soul had already gone / slammed the hammer through the door / dragged the sucker across the floor / cornfields drowned into the dust / everything dies within the rust / He said “Paint a picture in your mind” / Looking forever with nothing to find / With St. Louis in view I took it all to heart / I took everything with nothing apart / Whatever gets your boots stomping / With all the lights on, shaking the walls / Rhythm stole the wind, waiting on one phone call / at city limits we buy ourselves an extra hour / every last petal, every last flower / The devil was on his way out when I walked in / I tipped my hat and said “where've you been?” / Every bit of ground slipped away from underneath / The pie is now served, come and get your piece / you got me talking, now I could go all day / you may have done the crime but everyone else is gonna pay / complicated words, with no one left to beat / and yeah, the words rhyme right like a devil in heat
2.
The Boston brats moved Toronto way / they hit that scotch so hard / the apartment cracked and swayed / one brat good with a handle / the other with a blade / crossed the border like cats / the brats only played cards / with clubs and spades / Here you go again, looking for trouble / even the king gotta act more subtle / it ain't where you from it's where you at / big city, big dreams, bigger city, bigger fights / The Boston brats came north to stay / hit the ceiling so speedy / a ticket had to be paid / one brat struck a pose / the other took a shot, both made / from a big city to a bigger one / the best plans are best laid
3.
You know what you need / you know what you need to know / you know things move ahead so goddam slow / you know everyone up and down this block / you know all their secrets and you're ready to talk / you're going everywhere fast / but you gotta learn to hold back / cause it all comes around / and it will put you in the ground / You know where the power lies / you know the power of lies / you rely on the power of one to get it done / you're going to get it right but it won't happen without a fight / if you throw it in the air it'll come back down / you'll learn the hard way / that it'll put you in the ground
4.
Rock and roll comes apart in stages / first your ego and then your wages / dissatisfaction, it's a bird in the hand / kneel before all those who stand / Just a fad / Dinosaur bones, dig 'em up and prove 'em wrong / chaos and creation together in a song / good luck lapse, yes the policy was bad / obscure, now just a fad
