matt heckler - antietam 1862 lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
and it’s hard to quit, i’m hungry
there’s no water when i’m dry
and it does not make a difference
if i live or die

[chorus]
i will lay here with a wounded
i will lay here with a dying
as the sun bows out
with a thousand goodbyes
[verse 2]
i unravel and there’s bloodshed
bodies piled so high
and i pray but it does nothing
empty words cast at the sky

[chorus]
i will lay here with a wounded
i will lay here with a dying
as the sun bows out
with a thousand goodbyes

[verse 3]
today i lay down in the open field
bullets pass me by and many men were k!lled
i’m too sick to fight, i’m too tired to die
if i live to see tomorrow, i doubt that i will rise

[chorus]
and i will lay here with a wounded
i will lay here with a dying
as the sun bows out
with a thousand goodbyes

[verse 4]
i deserted at antietam, i traveled fast and light
the posse caught up with me and almost took my life
they charged me with sedition, beat me nearly blind
gave me back my rifle, put me back on the front line
[chorus]
and i will lay here with a wounded
i will lay here with a dying
as the sun bows out
with a thousand goodbyes

[verse 5]
i miss my old virginia, my dear old country home
my wife is waiting for me and i can’t leave her alone
so when this war is over, i’ll go back to my field
i’ll go back to my plow with a wound that doesn’t heal

[chorus]
and i will lay here with a wounded
i will lay here with a dying
as the sun bows out
with a thousand goodbyes

[verse 1]
cause it’s hard to quit, i’m hungry
there’s no water when i’m dry
and it does not make a difference
if i live or die

[chorus]
i will lay here with a wounded
i will lay here with a dying
as the sun bows out
with a thousand goodbyes
[verse 2]
i unravel and there’s bloodshed
bodies piled so high
and i pray but it does nothing
empty words cast at the sky

[chorus]
i will lay here with a wounded
i will lay here with a dying
as the sun bows out
with a thousand goodbyes
