Luke Eelman - Cold Soil Road Lyrics

Not far from the river there's a trail through the woods
Where the sun wouldn't shine even if it could
If you find yourself there better learn the code
'Cause ain't no good can happen down Cold Soil Road
Overgrowth and darkness give the place an eerie vibe
And oldtimers say it's where spirits hide
I can't say I believe everything I've been told
But something ain't right down Cold Soil Road
Two dozen shacks build long long ago
They shudder and shake when the night winds blow
As the years roll by iron gates will corrode
There's death and decay down Cold Soil Road
One story I heard that still gives me chills
That the Devil himself lives back in these hills
They say there's a cave where the creek overflowed
And he walks the earth down Cold Soil Road
Sometimes at night lights flicker through the trees
I just shut my eyes and pretend I don't see
'Cause I know if I look my blood will run cold
I try not to think about Cold Soil Road
Not far from the river there's a trail through the woods
Where the sun wouldn't shine even if it could
Some horrors in life can never be told
And those horrors reside down Cold Soil Road
