💀 THE STORY:
Kaleb stands at the riverside, digging a grave not for an enemy, but for his former self. A song for fans of The White Buffalo, Shawn James, and Colter Wall.

📜 LYRICS:

I took a shovel to the riverside
Where the muddy waters flow
I got a heavy burden inside my chest
And a long, long way to go
I ain't here to bury gold or silver
I ain't here to hide a crime
I’m just saying goodbye to a ghost
One last final time...

The wind is howling my name
But I don't recognize the sound
There’s no one left to blame
For what I’m putting in the ground.

Oh, I’m digging a grave for a good man
For the boy I used to be!
He was too soft for this hard land
Too blind to really see
Rest in peace, you gentle soul
The world has turned me cold
Yeah, I’m digging a grave for a good man...
And I’m selling the rest of my soul.

Look at my hands, they are stained with dirt
Look at my eyes, they are dry
Pain is just a different kind of hurt
That teaches you how to survive
I remember when I used to pray
But heaven didn't hear a word
So I picked up a gun and I walked away
And I let the anger burn.

Can you hear the angels weeping?
(NO!) They turned their backs on me!
Can you feel the darkness creeping?
(YEAH!) It’s the only thing that’s free!
Goodbye!
Goodbye to the light!
I embrace the night!

Oh, I’m digging a grave for a good man
For the boy I used to be!
He was too soft for this hard land
Too blind to really see
Rest in peace, you gentle soul
The world has turned me cold
Yeah, I’m digging a grave for a good man...
And I’m selling the rest of my soul!

Rest in peace...
Rest in peace...
The good man is dead.
