Coal

If today I meet my end

My maker knows I did my best

Grab my shovel and my axe

Pour holy water in my flask

The hottest place i’ve ever know

The dampness settles deep in my bones

I’m digging out, i’m digging in

Then i do it all over again

It’s a jack hammer shock

Knowing this is all i’ve got

Dark all morning, dark all night, dark all day I forget about the night

Dark all morning, dark all night, dark all day I forget about the night

In a world that sold its soul, to the devil they call coal

Covered in the dust and grim

Like a tattoo I can’t leave behind

It’s in my bed, it’s in my sheets

I smell it when I sleep

Oh I’m haunted by the sound

Of a life wasted underground

Dark all morning, dark all night, dark all day I forget about the night

Dark all morning, dark all night, dark all day I forget about the night

In a world that sold its soul, to the devil they call coal

Dark all morning, dark all night, dark all day I forget about the night
