lyrics

i wake up
at witching hour
from a nightmare
a fear encounter
my hope devoured

family fleeing
shifting ravine
the last to leap
the first to feel
nothing below my feet

i shake it off
off to decatur
say dad i love you
i'll see you later
i hope I'll see you later

i meet a man
with skilled hands
but there's a darkness
that heavily hangs
in the air it heavily hangs

i work hard
until the morning
water and coffee
my life supporting
then i find myself mourning again
mourning again
mourning again
again
and again

i think of mom
saying there is a reason
for every painful
and joyful season
there is a reason

but right now
i can't believe her
Am I a John?
Am I a Peter?
Or tragic creature?

now this truck
is shifting gears
while my mind
is sifting fears
like a full time job

but this drive
is a slice of heaven
when i just listen
to the wind
rushing the cabin
and in my heart
