Richy Mitch & The Coal Miners
Berry Herman
Colorado's on fire again
And its cinnamon sun, it's burning my morale
Through the red clouds, I'm fumbling around
Picking up pieces of this world I grew up in
While my hands have held nothing
After it burnt to the ground
So I'll pick up my feet
Instead you'll find me nappin' in the bays
Of Yaquina's Head
Find me basking in the rays
Losing track of my days
I'm escaping this den
Singing, "Don't wait for me"
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me
I've been wrestling with my conscious
And I know our history
But you wrecked it, when you burned it
And I left it there to bleed
I took a walk along Herman
Saw the scar of a Berry
[Instrumental Break]
I'm coming out of the darkness
I'm a man of mighty dirt
I'm a phoenix risen up
I'm just a symbol of my worth
And I'm ready to do you well
I've been finding faith in nothings
I've been giving myself hell
Giving others all my love
And I've been taking my time
I've been righting my wrongs
I've been spelling out each dirty dead
And scrambling for this song to sing
I'm sitting here in Josephine
And I think that all that time can bring
I miss you babe and I miss the state
I miss the old times, I miss everything
Oh, oh
Oh
[Instrumental Break]
Don't wait for me
Don't wait for me
Don't wait for me
I've been wrestling my conscious
And I know our history
But you wrecked it when you burned it
And I left it there to bleed
I took a walk along herman
Saw the scar of a berry
