Swamp Moss Soul

Way past the point of no return Been placing bets and gettin burned Alway end up drawing jokers till the dealer dealt a queen with you Hand and hand walking through a hundred year plane Watching waves flow through the golden grain All the blood and sweat and tear soaked dirt right here's the proof I finally found some heaven in the hills right next to you I'm a civil war soldier with a swamp moss soul Love grown wild wrapped around my throat Dreams don't die here they put down roots and grow Darlin you're a turnpike tourniquet dressed in black Bandaid bruises on this heart attack This family farm is where we'll rest our tired bones Just listen to the wind and you'll hear our ancestors groan"Sit and settle down with that girl and call her home" I've got centuries of memories running through my veins Both good and bad hanging on my name Resurrected my perspective once your light came into view Chasing out the shadow let the flowers bloom Opened up the door to the soul entombed Decorated all the space where I learned what not to do You put the hurt in the dirt and spread seeds of love and truth I'm a civil war soldier with a swamp moss soul Love grown wild wrapped around my throat Dreams don't die here they put down roots and grow Darlin you're a turnpike tourniquet dressed in black Bandaid bruises on this heart attack This family farm is where we'll rest our tired bones Just listen to the wind and you'll hear our ancestors groan"Sit and settle down with that girl and call her home" With less lies and more truth The kind of life that we must choose Fighting cycles nail and tooth Breaking curses here with you I'm a civil war soldier with a swamp moss soul Love grown wild wrapped around my throat Dreams don't die here they put down roots and grow Darlin you're a turnpike tourniquet dressed in black Bandaid bruises on this heart attack This family farm is where we'll rest our tired bones Just listen to the wind and you'll hear our ancestors groan"Sit and settle down with that girl and call her home"
