Soul Lay Open Video (MV)

There's an above-ground pool
There in the backyard
Threw pennies in the whole time I was growing up
Figured, if life really wished me well
It would turn into a wishing well
And all our suffering would go

Too old at a damn young age
Bedroom like a bird sung cage
On a new couch with each new Christmas
Won't somebody do these dishes?
Sure as hell I was not the one
To come around when it came undone
Put second on a winter hit list
All light just went missing

Strong roots but damn these limbs, out on one
Cold night, hard wind
Came down in the yard and split
Kin and timber

Soul lay open
Soul lay open

Eighteen when the madness stopped
In love with the runaways' daughters
Each one with the same damn name
Took care of them, forgot me

Sold gateway to friends who gone
Took shrooms in the night, we formed a
Oath we would never take for granted
Each other, this future

Strong roots but damn these limbs, out on one
Cold night, hard wind
Came down in the yard and split
Kin and timber

Soul lay open
Soul lay open

Kin and timber
Bold, brave, the middle kid
Ever since a child I've been soul searching

Soul lay open
Soul lay open
Soul lay open
Soul lay open

There's an above-ground pool
There in the backyard
Threw pennies in the whole time I was growing up
Figured, if life really wished me well
It would turn into a wishing well
