Leave It Alone - Blacktop Mojo

Hard eyes swallow whole

A man who once was ten feet tall

Body full of foreign soil

Stare down 1000 miles

Let that be boy

Leave it alone

Don’t speak no more

Hold your tongue

That ain’t for you

It’s mine to hold

Let that be

Leave it alone

Hear pounds with bygone rage

Keep it locked there in it’s cage

Weathered hands can’t let go

Pain captured in kodachrome

Let that be boy

Leave it alone

Don’t speak no more

Hold your tongue

That ain’t for you

It’s mine to hold

Let that be

Leave it alone

Let that be boy

Leave it alone

Don’t speak no more

Hold your tongue

That ain’t for you

It’s mine to hold

Let that be

Leave it alone

Old bones crack and grind

Under the weight of a heavy mind

In the ground buried deep

Too mean to die

Too proud to speak
