歌词
I’ve done everything right
Followed the bloodline
Mom fell behind
I took up the slack
Breaking my back
To work of the debt
And an unthankful brother’s
The thanks that I get
Eyes from the sun
Don’t look any higher
I’ve only begun
My sacrifice
Eighteen years old, trapped in a life
Under the ground
I’ve done everything right
Feels like I’m forty
Already the man I will be when I die
Don’t bother with why, won’t scream out for more
No use unearthing
The boy I was before
Eyes from the sun
Don’t look any higher
I’ve only begun
My sacrifice
I brought him up, he brings me here
I’ll bring him home
There’s a life I’m told to lead
Push through another year
I stick with what I’m stuck
And disappear
Lift me up
Burn me slow
Down below
I disappear
Lift me up
Once two brothers had a fight
I’ve done everything right
Soon I’ll just vanish
Sinking so deep that I’m likely to drown
I keep my head down
Keep food on the shelf
Keep paying for dreams
I can’t afford myself
[FRANCES, PETE, DUSTY, CHET] (overlapping)
Life me
Burn me slow
Down below
Eyes from the sun
Don’t look any higher
I’ve only begun
My sacrifice
Eighteen years old, trapped in a life
Under the ground
[FRANCES, PETE, DUSTY, CHET] (overlapping)
Life me up
Down below
Life me up
Down below
Pick up the slack
Put on my boots
Push through a year
And disappear
