Verse 1:
If you drive for eighty miles southwest of highway 44
To those Ozark woods where outside folks don't stay
There's a cliff called Buzzard's Bluff where we would lie on high ground and watch the birds below circle around their prey.
And we would pray.
We would pray.

Chorus:
There ain't nobody's gonna run in here and save me
Heaven knows I can't save myself
I've got no more tears and I've got nothing left for taking
You know the dead don't ever call for help.

Verse 2:
It was eighteen miles to town, another mile to Congress Hill
We spent our childhood locked inside a double-wide
No neighbor ever knocked and no one looked us in the eye
It's no one's business what goes on inside.
Goes on inside.

Chorus

Bridge:
I used to pray to be a bird and fly away
Not one time or two, but every single day
Everyone may look the other way,
But I know what happened.
God knows what happened.

Chorus
