Miles of Bones - Choose Your Weapon [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Well, I been hangin' around at the crossroads hopin' to sell my soul
The devil, I'll tell you, has gone downhill since he quit that rock'n'roll
But I can't see another road for me so it's down the road I go
You won't be catchin' sight of me no more

And there was a girl that I picked up somewhere along the road
She said "come on now, and settle down, lay down your heavy load"
So I left that lady cryin' in the dust out on the highway
And I carried on along my merry way

And there are some times when late at night I think upon my sins
Sometimes I wish that I'd never went to those places that I've been
I know life's too fast for lookin' back and I'm in this thing to win
Raised the stakes and I'll fire it up again

[Chorus]
And you gotta choose your weapon
The one you choose, it doesn't really matter
Pick a direction and ride 'er to the end
Could be whiskey or poison
You won't know 'til the bottom of the glass
Just knock it back and get on your feet again

[Verse 2]
And there was a time when I was well and fine with my pitchfork and my gun
It was this guitar that gave me all these scars and where this foul mouth came from
Now I will not hear of slowing down while I've still got legs to run
Out of town into that setting sun

[Chorus x 2]
You gotta knock it back and get on your feet again
Well I said knock it back and get on your feet again
