I can see a red sun rise in the eyes of a stallion
Leading out the old battalion through the Carolina snow
With a satchel at my side I got no one to confide in
In a million men a' fighting for a cause we do not know
Growing up no boy ever truly wants to be a killer
Staring down the silver studded barrel of a gun
Oh but I have come to know the noise a man makes when he dies
Is just the screaming of his pride and so I came to run
And as my feet hit the ground
She's the place I'm bound
Maggots in the maize, I haven't seen the road in days
Slowly tripping through the haze underneath the knotted pines
And on every single branch my body's swaying on a rope
What it means to be alone in a young murderer's mind
But something in the distance still beckons me to stumble
Despite the constant rumble of a hunger I can't feed
With no regard for reason I've awaited all my life
A return to paradise that I cannot quite conceive
And as my feet hit the ground
She's the place I'm bound
And as the evening dims I can feel this sickness win
Spreading out from its damned origin
And the common medicine is to repent for all my sins
But I've never understood where or how to begin
Stooping to the slough for an undeserved drink
I've had too much time to think and now this I do surmise
That whether we have fled or a marching to the drums
Every single man is running from the civil war inside
So you can call me by my name, you can call me by my nation's
Both are just as vacant as a breath into the cold
Disappearing in the moonlight with all that I confess
In the long-awaited death of myself into my soul
And as my feet hit the ground
She's the place I'm bound
