[Intro – Low, Gravel-Voiced]
Yeah…
Dust on the boots, blood on the past,
Some roads lead home, some damn roads last.
Strike that match, let the shadows ignite—
Exit light… enter night.
[Verse 1]
Blacktop bleeds under a blood-red moon,
Diesel growls like a devil’s tune.
Whiskey burns, got a heart full of scars,
Running from ghosts beneath dead stars.
Mama said, “Boy, don’t live that way,”
But the devil rode shotgun and I made my play.
A cold steel cross and a six-string prayer,
A dead man’s grin in the midnight air.
[Chorus]
Exit light, enter night,
Black soul burning in the pale moonlight.
Hell on wheels, no wrong made right,
I was born in the dark, raised to fight.
Exit light, let the old world die,
Black wings spread 'neath a bloodshot sky.
No chains, no tears, no saving sight—
Exit light… ENTER NIGHT!
[Verse 2]
Down in Georgia where the cypress cry,
I buried my sins where the black snakes lie.
Sheriff’s lights flashing red in the rain,
Every mile just feeds my pain.
Got a rusted Colt and a worn-out name,
A pocket full of trouble and a soul full of flame.
The preacher talks mercy, the bottle talks truth,
I lost my God somewhere back in my youth.
[Chorus]
Exit light, enter night,
Black soul burning in the pale moonlight.
Hell on wheels, no wrong made right,
I was born in the dark, raised to fight.
Exit light, let the old world die,
Black wings spread 'neath a bloodshot sky.
No chains, no tears, no saving sight—
Exit light… ENTER NIGHT!
[Bridge – Slow, Heavy, Menacing]
Hear that banjo? That ain’t no song,
That’s the sound of the damned rolling on.
Gravel spits, and the thunder rolls,
Six black horses come for my soul.
If Heaven shuts the gate on me,
I’ll raise my hell where the wild men roam free!
[Final Chorus – Full Band, Raw Shout]
EXIT LIGHT! ENTER NIGHT!
Kick that dust in the Devil’s eyes!
Burn that bridge, let the fire rise,
Ain’t no angels in these darkened skies!
EXIT LIGHT! ENTER NIGHT!
No surrender, no end in sight!
Ride till the dawn, or die in the fight—
EXIT LIGHT… ENTER NIGHT!
[Outro – Spoken, Gravel-Deep]
One last drink… one last ride.
Ain’t no peace on the other side.
Kill the engine… kill the light…
Hell, I feel alive…
When I enter the night.
