lyrics

Take me home where I can fear nothing anymore
I’ve grown tired slightly weary lost a bit of all I am
Honey can’t you see I’m as earnest as I can be
I was turning for that apple though it turned away from me

Every since Kentucky taught me how to doubt
It’s a lonesome feeling that I just can’t live without
I’ve been searching for answers and the keys to this cell
There’s a ghost here that haunts me claims to be my own self

Hollowed eyes but he shimmers when he swears

I was broken to the floor as I made my way for the door
I was grinding tooth through the hollers and the lakes
Shining bright lights of heaven yes but angst with the likes of hell
She sat alone on a creekside alway yelling as she swayed

Every since Kentucky taught me how to doubt
It’s a lonesome feeling that I just can’t live without
I’ve been searching for answers and the keys to this cell
There’s a ghost here that haunts me claims to be my own self

Hollowed eyes but he shimmers when he swears
And I knew I just had to get back home
