matt heckler - the great divide lyrics

mama’s crying in the backroom she won’t let n0body in
there’s bill’s to pay and mouths to feed and daddy’s drunk again
rain comes through the trailer roof and fills the buckets to the brim
between the death and cigarettes, a childhood gives in

and out of trailer parks and foreclosed homes
i cut my t++th so bittersweet out on the road
but now i’m getting old and it’s so hard to settle down
leave another low down city to another godd+mn town

lay down upon the barren earth and rest your weary eyes
dive deep into your memory and lock yourself inside
remember how the roses grew when watered with sweet tea
those southern nights those golden days you layed
yourself beside me

i’m bound for better days and hope these wounds will heal
but scars last till the bitter end when flesh breaks under steal
at night i like awake and i wish i would’ve stayed
out on the banks and lowman road
till the end of my days

you’ll find a new way and a life in truth
and you finally will see dear god let me be
you go your way and i’ll go mine
i won’t cross the great divide
although sometimes in the morning when it hurts the most
i hear you calling me
dear god let me be
you’ll find a new way and a life in truth
and you finally will see dear god let me be
so if you see my darlin’ won’t you send my love
six months to the day and she is all i’m thinking of
see to it she’s got a coat against the winter’s cold
a fireplace to keep her warm and rest her weary souls

are bound by blood and fire until the very end
a heart that’s bound by wild desire will not give in
so lay yourself down easy in the bitter root and pine
let the trials of this world make you stronger
or pass you bye
