Tar

(album: Stovall - 2014)

Sleeping oak
You've had us so worked up
Just come back where your roots grow
Please come home
It's almost New Years
Oh my god you must be so cold

Make it soon cause the ground just froze
And the county's shutting down the roads

The season's too long
Just kick your shoes off
And stay with us, please stay
Let out your tarred lungs
And fill them back up
With the air you used to use to pray
When did that stop?

We lost hope
The day you swore the soil was gone and dug a new hole

Make it soon cause the ground just froze
And the county's shutting down the roads

The braces on the corners of the old suspension bridge are getting weak
The devil's chaining up his own
So fuck the pigs that locked you up
Cause you weren't hurting anyone
But, you should have known this day would come
I guess, if you're gonna be stupid, then you gotta be tough

The season's too long
Just kick your shoes off
And stay with us, please stay
Let out your tarred lungs
And fill them back up
With the air you used to use to pray
When did that stop?
