"The Toll" lyrics

"The Toll"

It was full wallet Friday from a 40 hour week
I wouldn't just getting by by the skin of my teeth
Whatever I want whenever I please
Till your love was taking a toll on me

Tough as a steel brush to rust and a chisel to stone
Hard as a hammer to nail and a break to the bone
Hell, the list goes on
Ain't found an axe that could take on this tree
Till your love was taking a toll on me

Never could just stop after a long one or two
Liquored up loose lips leave you all black and blue
Sticking around was no trick up my sleeve
Till your love was taking a toll on me

Tough as a steel brush to rust and a chisel to stone
Hard as a hammer to nail and a break to the bone
Hell, the list goes on
I ain't found an axe that could take on this tree
Till your love was taking a toll on me

Was getting good at lonesome, no one by my side
No one to wake up or go to bed with at night
Turns out I didn't have quite everything
Till your love was taking a toll on me
I thought the puzzle wasn't missing no piece
Till your love was taking a toll on me
