Black Water and the gators calling me home
I've got an axe to grind on an old dark stone
Seems things don't change no matter how long you run
My skin still burns under that sour orange sun
Chorus:
I've been gone for too long
Black waters been coming on strong
I've been missing my home
Back roads and I won't be long
I've been gone for too long
Black waters been coming on strong
I've been missing my home
Back roads and I won't be long
Spiders still live over the bed I rest
They wait for me while I confess
A two by four and a forty yard swing
I'll never miss the punished scream
Chorus
Stranded out in the middle of the sea
Won't some one come and carry me
I lost myself in the shadow of the sun
A broken soul is never undone
Chorus
