We live for the mountains
cause the mountains give us life
But the pits were too inviting
And they stripped away our lives

If I could holler from this hollow
For just a little help
Im sure the neighbors would come running
Just to see for them selves

And I dont give a damn
If you dont understand

(chorus)
Cause I hear the voices calling
Theyre sending me a warning about you
Is it a haunting song from a familiar dream
Or just an appalachian scream

Were neighbors were not friends
I dont trust them a bit
Call it baseless paranoia
Or the way that we live

Were all escaping something
But were blind to what it is
If Id turn my back hed kill me
And Id do the same to him

And I dont give a damn
If you dont understand

(chorus)

I built this shit from nothing
I brought it up with love
Considering what I got now
Its still not very much

After 20 years times forgotten me
And I wish it all the same
But theyre knocking at my neighbors door
And soon theyll call my name

(chorus)
