I Won't Lie About Why - Breaking Rust
Lights were burning white and mean
Eight turned into six that sing
Told the press the dirt was slick
Blamed the draw and looks bad pick
Said the bull came out too wild
Talked a smooth almost smile
Walked away with head held high
Saying it weren't on me, why lie
Told that tale till it felt true
Anything but what I knew
I won't lie while about why I fell
Won't dress it up or try to sell
It wasn't dust or twisted fate
It was half a second late
Fear crept and I felt it stay
Tightened up and gave away
I may lose, I may hit sky
But I won't lie about why
Late one night with house asleep
Watched that ride no crowd to keep
No announcer, no excuse
Just the truth I turned loose
Saw my grip, saw my doubt
Saw the moment I checked out
Not the bull and not the gate
It was me who hesitated
Pride can hide a crack and still
Honesty makes it real
I won't lie about why I fell
Won't blame dust or some old spell
Fear ain't weakness in the bone
Pretending it ain't there's the stone
So I drove back for daylight
Boots and sand, no crowd inside
Climb back on with steady eye
Wouldn't lie about why
Some days clean, some days dirt
Stood up faster through the hurt
I won't lie about why I fall
It's how I stand, it says it all
Win or lose ain't the line
It's facing truth in your own spine
Fear still whispers that's alright
I just saddled up and ride
I may fall beneath that sky
But I won't lie about why
Eight seconds all just fire
Truth's what keeps a man alive
