lyrics

Diggin for diamonds, searching for gold
down in the belly of the earth where the light won’t go
the silence is so heavy I can’t breathe
there’s a mile between you up there
and me down underneath, so

Shine a light and throw a rope
I could use a little hope
I ain’t lookin for a hero
But some times it’s a long hard climb just to get to zero

Scratching the surface, I disappear
down in the belly of the place where i face my fear
tethered to my sketchy memory
there’s a little bird singing out
won’t you set me free?

Shine a light and throw a rope
I could use a little hope
I ain’t lookin for a hero
But some times it’s a long hard climb just to get to zero

When I finally see the sky, lord have mercy on my eyes

Shine a light and throw a rope
I could use a little hope
I ain’t lookin for a hero
But some times it’s a long hard climb just to get to zero
