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
