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
