The Hits

He’s been toast twice
Killed by love about six times
Hit his face on Hell’s front door
Then went back for a little more

He’s made ghosts run
Done some things he shouldn’t have done
Cracked his head right after he fell
He remembers that night too well

So he heads for the stone

The hits were coming
Crashing in trios of threes
A little too much for me
All those falling leaves
A little too much for me
Fell so suddenly

What happened when the seasons skipped?
When will I get home from this trip?
Time only leads to leaving

He’s done twice that
Been around the world, stood where you sat
Loved a queen with big black wings
Strummed a chord so storms would sing

He’s lived nine lives
Made them all laugh so he would survive
Knows of a road made of sunset stone
That he walks when he’s all alone
