Gov’t Mule - Dark Was the Night, Cold Was the Ground lyrics

Dark was the night and cold was the ground
Blue on one side, black is on the other
We all see red, it's definin' our color
Are we in a hurry
See what happens in the end
If we don't find the new start, end is night
My friend
Dark was the night and cold was the ground
Oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh
Oh, yeah, cold was the ground
Rue the day that we can't live together
Cut so deep and we keep bleeding forever
Are we so blind? Can't see the road ahead
Traveling to somewhere
We'd be better off dead

Are we so hungry for the old days
That we'd actually go back in time?
Relive all the negativity that took us
So long to live down
Memories of kings and queens that
Were buried in the past
Seem like the ghost a-rising up
Rising up, rising up pullin' us back
Dark was the night and cold was the ground
Oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh
Oh, oh oh oh, oh cold was the ground
