Way out on the plains of the farmland
I pray my momma's safe and the water is clean
Underground are rivers of the homeland
Beggin’ for the poison to wash away
I am not the one who can show you how to fight
On the line
Can't commit
Down to the wire
Over the edge or left behind
Dying to live but so damn tired
'Cause I'm still stuck on the line
Look up maybe there's a saviour
Spirit inside has begun to rust
Fed up with your own behaviour
Calloused hands still workin’ the flood
I am not the one who can show you how to fight
Way out on the plains of the farmland
I pray my momma's safe and the water is clean
Underground are rivers of the homeland
Beggin’ for the poison to wash away
I am not the one who can show you how to fight
On the line
Can't commit
Down to the wire
Over the edge or left behind
Dying to live but so damn tired
'Cause I'm still stuck on the line
Look up maybe there's a saviour
Spirit inside has begun to rust
Fed up with your own behaviour
Calloused hands still workin’ the flood
I am not the one who can show you how to fight
