Coal Mine - Miner

hold my weight, if you are able

hold my weight, best as you can

both our feet, under the water

both our feet, will help me to to stand

I thought I was gone till you pulled me off the floor

lost my place, just like I told you

lost my place, hide and the hair

guide my way, out of the darkness

guide my way, and I’ll meet you there

over where the mountains fall across the shore

it’s been a long time in the coal mine

I was holding the bottom up from below

slow climb to the sunshine

but I don’t think the devil will let me go

carve our names, into in the canyon

carve our names, into the stone

I could be, your hilltop cathedral

I could be, the crack in the dome

just might bring the whole thing tumbling to the ground

so bring it down

it’s been a long time

so give me sunshine
