"Heartland"

Michael Lemon (c)

 

Intro:

 

Out in this heartland 

 

I search for meaning 

 

I look at these hands 

 

Rough and bleeding 

 

We work our fingers to the bone 

 

Just so we don’t die alone 

 

 

Outro:

 

Out in this heartland 

 

The sweat is beading 

 

These burning eyes 

 

No good for reading 

 

Tomorrow is another day 

 

Within this heartland we remain
