So many good jobs went south
They put a prison in it's place
So many good lives contained
Oh, have you seen them all?
Rising for the altar call
Taste of heaven, taste of hell
When they're never gonna make it out
They're never gonna make it out
You are my brother
This much I know
I wanna let your goodness show
You are my sister
As I have seen
I wanna let your goodness breathe
You are my family
Although I've fought
You gave me all the good I've got
So I built an altar unto itself
You're never gonna let me out
You're never gonna let me out
I got some good plans of my own
Set off to watch my future grow
Like a good weed that I let
Take over my garden plants
Until one day I dug it up
Washed my hands and shaved and cussed
And it was then that I felt
Your goodness is my only help
Your goodness is my only help
So when I die
Will you dig my grave?
The only place I want to lay
Is right by you in the shade
A million nights, a million days
But there's a lifetime in between
I wanna set my goodness free
I feel my nature but it goes away
I will not keep, I will not stay
I will not keep I will not stay
Yes I've hoped for things unseen
Yes I've hoped for things unseen
Yes I've unsure of so many things
Unsure of so many things
I will not keep, I will not stay
I will not keep, I will not stay
Oh, goodness, won't you come my way
Another place, another day
Well, yes I know that I've loved this world
Yes I know I've loved this world
And yes I know that I've loved this world
Yes I know I've loved this world
And yes I know that I've loved this place
Yes I've know I've loved this place
And yes I know that I've loved your face
Oh, goodness, won't you come my way
Oh, goodness, don't you fade away
Goodness don't you fade away
I will not keep, I will not stay
Goodness, don't you fade away
Oh, goodness, don't you fade away
My only goodness, don't you fade away
My only goodness, don't you fade away
Shut the old mill down So many good jobs went south They put a prison in it's place So many good lives contained Oh, have you seen them all? Rising for the altar call Taste of heaven, taste of hell When they're never gonna make it out They're never gonna make it out You are my brother This much I know I wanna let your goodness show You are my sister As I have seen I wanna let your goodness breathe You are my family Although I've fought You gave me all the good I've got So I built an altar unto itself You're never gonna let me out You're never gonna let me out I got some good plans of my own Set off to watch my future grow Like a good weed that I let Take over my garden plants Until one day I dug it up Washed my hands and shaved and cussed And it was then that I felt Your goodness is my only help Your goodness is my only help So when I die Will you dig my grave?
