Turn You In

by Mountain Dust

on Seven Storms (2018)

I am the one with the chains and shakes in my bones
The rain, in his wrath, casts stones in my path as I make my escape
I've staggered for days so I break for a breath by the Lake With No Name
And I wait for the lawman to come with the sound of the drum
And his dumbfounded guns who all know what I've done
I've returned to a town I once called my own just to watch it burn
I fumbled around in the dirt and the death and I found what's at stake
It was you
It was you pulling me through
There's so many more

I want to turn you in to the sun should it show
I've been here for so long and I'm told I'll be cold by the count

I am the one with the face that glows in the black of the night
Embraced by the smoke, so slowly it grows, as fast as it bites
I've been shunned, I've been shamed, now I'm left to their aim
By the Lake With No Name
It was you
It was you pulling me through
There's so many more

I want to turn you in
I'll be cold by the count
I want to turn you in to the sun should it show
I've been here for so long and I'm told I'll be cold by the count
