What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
fire and brimstone fell upon my ears
2
as their throats of open graves recited fear
3
like the bullets of a gun they drove my tears
4
and my feet to run the hell out of here
5
see, I was born a restless, wayward child
6
I could hear the whole world calling me outside
7
of the masses I routinely sat behind
8
and Lord, I had to see with my own eyes
9
take me home
10
I want to go
11
down the road that will take me
12
to the living oak
13
and Lord, I know
14
that I'm a weathered stone
15
but I owe it to my brothers
16
to carry them home
17
take me home
18
I want to go
19
down the road that will take me
20
to the living oak
21
and Lord, I know
22
it's a heavy load
23
but we'll carry our brothers
24
oh, we'll carry them home
25
and oh, there is no power on Earth or below
26
that could ever break our hearts or shake our souls
27
and when you lay me down, you'll only bury bones
28
'cause oh, my heart and soul are going home
