[Guardin - ​the drifter lyrics]

Lost boy, hoping I find my way home
Lost sight of why I'm here and
Where the fuck I should go
120 miles from my area code
Spilt whiskey on my shirt
Inside this evergreen home
Might tumble down and fall beneath
The thick of the mist
A silhouette sat in the distance comes
And swings with a miss
I climb trees just to save
Myself from what could've been
And hide high upon this mountain with
A pad and a pen

The drifter lives down the road
And if he follows me home
Then I'll pack everything and
Leave 'til I know that I am safe bеside my
Company although he's below
And thеn he'll gut me like a pig
And leave my bones to the crows
And this time I've convinced myself
That I'm gonna die
Oh, I don't think that it's alright
But I'll just pray to the sky
I'll find a god in what I
Sing and sing it every night
And maybe time will tell my story
I won't put up a fight

'Cause fear leads me towards destruction
Crippled, unable to function
Full of unwanted assumptions
Petrified by my consumptions
I used to hide along the meadow
And now I practice my falsetto
I've been like this from the get-go
I don't ever wanna let go

The walls we build hide all the bodies
Of everyone who lives inside me
