Beautiful Struggle

Three days out from her hometown
Something overheated something broke down
Hit Las Vegas like we might belong
It seemed for a minute that we weren't so wrong
You can't tell when you're weak and you're young
It's a beautiful struggle
The tracks end here but the train's gotta run
Beautiful struggle
You wanna be loved by everyone
If it was anywhere else if it was up to me
We would have had something so we weren't so free
But a dog won't listen once she's tasted blood
Why we stayed together it was clear as mud
You can't tell when the damage is done
It's a beautiful struggle
The tracks end here but the train's gotta run
Beautiful struggle
When you wanna be loved by everyone
The last time I saw her she was dressed in white
She was up in that back house with her appetite
It's a beautiful struggle
The tracks end here but the train's gotta run
Beautiful struggle
