What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Something broke through the brindled soil
2
Rattling the grass
3
Spittin' like coal
4
My spade came down across his spine
5
a terrible fear flew across his eyes
6
I said we both have lives that we are owed
7
You can own an acre, but not what it grows
8
I gave no heed when I got in,
9
Had bread and tea and then the beast got skinned
10
Diamond skin on a hickory post
11
Blowin' like a curse in the knee high rows
12
I never in my life had seen
13
the kind of rain we got that spring
14
A flood washed up every rainbow snake
15
And I was soon begging them to let me stay
16
They gave no heed when I got in,
17
they said You can hunt hares in our garden.
18
You can hunt hares in our garden.
19
Who will love a loveless thing
20
Betrayed by God, exiled by beast
21
I can hear you in the floorboards deep in the night
22
You could have freed me and redeemed your life
Carly Pearce - Diamondback (Lyric Video)
