It’s Getting Dark

[Verse]
The winds that blew were riders with a job to do
God, swiftly make their job tonight
Night is long and horse is fast
County lines I’ve passed
The pressure that had pent up now is gone
It doesn’t make for easy moving on
The roads I choose are winding, secret, seldom used
When I get home I’ll light the lights
Shoreline on the beach
It’s out to you I reach
Only to remind myself, move forward
And fall asleep inside the ocean’s roar
Secrеts in the mountains high
Or on the shadowed path I ridе
The mysteries that haunt tonight are plenty
The moon upon the banks again
Say goodbye and pack the camp
I’m not ready
The shadow’s pool is soft and silent, cold and cruel
What’s left behind’s not left behind
Tonight I can’t speak plain
I’m sorry that I’ve changed
What are these emotions hard to score
They don’t exist, the words I’m looking for

[Outro]
Reflect on seasons passed
More trouble than the last
And every sign I come across is charged
Love, you have to leave, it’s getting dark
