Farther from Good

That place ain't home no more
After what went down and they slammed the door
They wrote my name top of their black list
In big print, permanent ink, it can't be missed
And I made enemies that don't forget

I had to get out a town fast
I got forced out, can't go back
Now I'm running down some dark lonesome roads
Getting farther from good the farther I go
Hunted down to hell and back
Driven out of bounds, way off track
Where demons seduce tortured souls
Getting farther from good the farther I go

No one looked at the facts
Nobody there gave me half a chance
My so called friends treated me like crap
Talking trash behind my back, I kicked their ass
And this whole ugly thing kept breaking bad

I had to get out a town fast
I got forced out, can't go back
Now I'm running down some dark lonesome roads
Getting farther from good the farther I go
Hunted down to hell and back
Driven out of bounds, way off track
Where demons seduce tortured souls
Getting farther from good the farther I go

For those who want the truth, here's the real story
My best friend embezzled, left clues that it was me
Factory closed, town got tense, cop came to take me in
He said "confess or I'll go at your girl"
Well the anger in my fists messed up his face
I knocked him out and knew I had to get away
I needed wheels, stole his car, needed cash, robbed a bar
At every step it escalates, police on my tail, forever chased

I had to get out a town fast
I got forced out, can't go back
Now I'm running down some dark lonesome roads
Getting farther from good the farther I go
Hunted down to hell and back
Driven out of bounds, way off track
Where demons seduce tortured souls
Getting farther from good the farther I go

I had to get out a town fast
I got forced out, can't go back
Now I'm running down some dark lonesome roads
Getting farther from good the farther I go
Hunted down to hell and back
Driven out of bounds, way off track
Where demons seduce tortured souls
Getting farther from good the farther I go
