Divided We Fall.Long Violent History Lyrics:It’s the worst that it’s been since the last time it happened It’s happening again right in front of our eyes There’s updated footage, wild speculation,Tall tales, and hearsay, and absolute liesBeing passed off as factualWhen actually the actualCause is there awkwardly blocking the wayKeeping us all from enjoying our eveningShoving its roots through the screens in our faceNow what would you get if you heard my opinionConjecturin’ on matters that I ain’t never dreamedIn all my born days as a white boy from HickmanBased on the way that the world’s been to meIt’s called me belligerent,It’s took me for ignorant But it ain’t never once made me scared just to beCould you imagine just constantly worrying Kicking, and fighting, and begging to breatheHow many boys could they haul off this mountain Shoot full of holes cuffed and laying in the street‘Till we’d come into town in a stark ravin’ angerLooking for answers and armed to the teeth,With thirty-aught-sixes, And Papaw’s old pistol.How many you reckon?Would it be four or five?Or would that be the start of a long Violent History of tucking our tails as we try to abide?#TylerChilders #LongViolentHistory #HickmanHollerAppalachianReliefFund
