lyrics

Boots in the dirt
We were stalling
For the buzz to take us
We’d already paid

Here’s to coming clean
I want to lie to your face
when it’s playful
We’re already saved

Can you trust your mouth
To know that it’s bleach
We’ve been drinking
Cause we’re running out

It’s just mixed with the mud
That’s holding us down
As we’re sinking
In small amounts

It’s true the few I’ve loved keep haunting
It’s something that never will change
The news of those I loved passing
It’s crushing but I needed the pain

Sorry mom I’m a flirt
Always brushing
Against the stable
Down in the dirt

They begged for truth
They weren’t able
To trust like demanding
They be hurt

Watch animals scream
As they're pulled apart
By something higher
Up In the chain

Tried to save them all
They got lifted
Up to a heaven
Put an end to the fall

It’s true the few I’ve loved keep haunting
It’s something that never will change
The news of those I loved passing
It’s crushing but I needed the pain
I’ve lost more than most
Surrounded here by ghosts
It’s something that never will change
The news of those I loved passing
It’s crushing but I needed the pain
