about

In March of 2012, Niles had two songs (“Same Road” & “Harden To Heal”) featured in scenes for the F/X Networks hit series 'Justified.' The episode is entitled 'Loose Ends' and is the ninth installment of the third season.

lyrics

You’ve got silver in your hand and a cold blank stare, ambition inside but you ain’t going nowhere. And time don’t seem to wait for you to make up your mind. Spend the day wrestling fate and looking for a sign .

Chorus
Dirty mind and dirty hands, you got ‘em steady on the wheel.
Put on hearts and put off plans you gotta harden to heal.

Your mama treats me good but your daddy never would. When vast is the night, you'd stray off if you could.
But you’re caught up in affliction, while all your boys race for lust. You’re burned up from friction and searching for trust

When hard crime starts paying, when all the good sells out, you’re traveling to follow but your wheels are worn out.
You're strides ahead of beat down and just out of grasp, when your sun rises over the border, don't look back.
