greensky bluegrass - reverend lyrics
couple beers with the reverend
am i safe from the night?
more money to the system
am i free from the fight?
i left myself behind in my home town
went looking for a new place, you won’t find me around
i made peace with my country
though i never could believe
somebody else’s struggle
is the reason that i flee
there’s none that miss me, they never thought i’d go
so many things about me, n0body seems to know
[chorus]
can you carry more
if you leave me back?
what’s left to take?
who’s lives come last?
i can find fewer reasons
against the need to run
than my hands to bear a burden
a weight i can’t overcome
there are reasons i worry, there are answers i fear
is there love enough to save us? will it find us out here?
[chorus]
i counted my fortunes
with time left to spare
my doubts all outnumbered
regardless of what’s fair
need to find a way to carry myself through the day
let grief lie behind me and learn to look away
[solos]
[chorus]
