You'd never leave on your own

Where you're from and where you're going

I know these things like I know you hate me now

Catch yourself in mid-air thinking

Your dreams can never be bought

I couldn't help you then and I guess I can't help you now

When jousting is for pleasure

Pleasure is way out of hand

The time is right for getting out while we still can

Chickamauga's where I've been

Solitude is where I'm bound

I don't ever wanna taste these tears again

I don't ever wanna taste these tears again

Appalachian, so patient

The lessons we've traveled

As soon as we're out we're kicking our way back in

Fighting fire with unlit matches

From our respective trenches

No authority can clean up this mess we're in

A miracle might point the way

To solutions we're after

And avert our chronic impending disaster

Chickamauga's where I've been

Solitude is where I'm bound

I don't ever wanna taste these tears again
