[Lyric] Drums and Shotguns (Nathan Gray)

Rise, but keep quiet
Something stirs outside, it’s got me frightened
Drums and shotguns keep me awake tonight from all the fighting
(And this is nothing like I thought it might be)

This is my refuge…awake
At last darkness, tuck away with me out into the nights’ perfume
If over the hills you hear cries, they’ll never touch you
Sleep, the sun is creeping over a bleeding sky, I hear no fighting

Drums and shotguns slipped away this time when in crept morning
Rise, but scream like fire

And in the night reside dance beneath the lightening
Drums and shotguns sing me to sleep tonight, the sweet sound of fighting
(And this is nothing like I thought it might be)

This is my refuge…awake
And I keep hoping
