Lyrics
Verse 1
Heavy lungs
I walk through the mud and the grit
No map
Lost my way inside the thick of it
Cold hands
Cold heart
Bitter wood smoke
Burning in the yard
Tearing us apart
Tearing me apart
Chorus
Give me water for the dry ground
Water for the dry ground
Water for the dry ground
It hurts so bad
It hurts so bad
God knows it hurts so bad
My brothers gone
My mother gone
My spirit gone
Verse 2
Dust settles
Red clay staining my worn out heels
Nothing feels real
Hungry belly
Nothing left to steal
Broken brick
Broken bone
Broken dream
Scraping for a meal
Trying to find a way to heal
Quietly
Dying slowly
Dying lonely
Waiting for the deal
Chorus
Give me water for the dry ground
Water for the dry ground
Water for the dry ground
It hurts so bad
It hurts so bad
God knows it hurts so bad
My brothers gone
My mother gone
My spirit gone
Bridge
Maybe I am cursed
Maybe I am done
Maybe I am just the lonely one
The sun is too hot
The rain never comes
I am counting my scars like they are sums
One for the house
Two for the road
Three for the weight of this heavy load
Chorus
Give me water for the dry ground
Water for the dry ground
Water for the dry ground
It hurts so bad
It hurts so bad
God knows it hurts so bad
My brothers gone
My mother gone
My spirit gone
Outro
Walking alone
Just walking alone
Until I am stone
Until I am stone
Nothing left
Nothing left
Dry ground
Dry ground
