lyrics

I was bored . . . so I called upon my cousin
To dig into the earth
As if it could give us something
Well, my feet sank in the mud
And it became my only friend
now I think of dying
As if it already happened

I know what happens next
I know I know
I know what happens next

I was called on by the Lord
To witness a ceremony
Of a still-born life in a still-born town
So I called upon my courage
And walked up to the church doors
But I felt so separated
From the family I was raised in
Singing songs—singing songs—singing songs
To try and dam (damn) the tears
That were the only honest option

I know what happens next
I know I know
I know what happens next

Take me to the mountain
Take me to the canyon
I don't see any difference
I could sing the same thing at any elevation:
Where is my god?

Take me to the desert
Drop me in the ocean
There ain't one lick of difference
If it were a drowning or a dehydration
Something has died

Toss me to the treetops
Dig me in the dirt
I can't escape his right hand
God is in the high place
But also in the low
Now I know

Oh oh oh oh oh-oh

So take me to Montana
Or leave me in Wisconsin
There ain't one lick of difference
I could sing thing in any state I'm in

Toss me to the treetops
Dig me in the dirt
I can't escape his right hand
The devil's in the streets
But God is on the footpath
I just now learned
