[Verse]
Midnight, sky cracked, moon drippin' honey
Shadows on the dirt road, chasin' lost money
Heartstrings snap, banjo pluckin' my soul
Hollow like a whiskey barrel, never full, never whole
[Prechorus]
Dust trails whisper, but they don’t explain
Left me in the thunder, drowned in the rain
[Chorus]
Why did you go? Why'd you leave me low?
Roots pulled from the earth, got nowhere to grow
Why did you run? You stole my sun
Left me singin' to the night, till the mornin' comes
[Verse 2]
Truck bed dreams, tailgate promises
Echoes in the canyon, they ain't honest, kid
Boot prints vanish, swallowed by the creek
Voice cracked in the holler, no words left to speak
[Prechorus]
The wind won’t answer, it just hums the blues
Chokin’ on the silence, searchin’ for clues
[Chorus]
Why did you go? Why'd you leave me low?
Roots pulled from the earth, got nowhere to grow
Why did you run? You stole my sun
Left me singin' to the night, till the mornin' comes
