Before I'm Covered

Rotten leaves on the ground they smell like rum
I slammed the door and I'm still on the run
I had to find a way to set my mind at ease
Had to find my self among these eternal trees

I got it settled but I felt like a clown
Or a man in a sack and just about to drown
Digging for your dreams felt like a crime
Had to let it go and go with mine

Hey brother, won't you please forgive my soul
I just got to get out, I just got to get out
Before I'm covered

Now I rage over some razor wire
Ripping my pinstripe and a mud stained tie
Knee deep in mire I stop my flight
I crawl and break down by a dim streetlight

Hey brother, won't you please forgive my soul
I just got to get out, I just got to get out
Before I'm covered

They taught us to smother the flames
Under the ashes, over the ages
Lucky them who see it through
Who stay carved of this ancient wood

Hey brother, won't you please forgive my soul
I just got to get out, I just got to get out
Before I'm covered
