Josiah and the Bonnevilles - Holy Place lyrics

Artist: Josiah and the Bonnevilles

album: 2022 (Commentary)


I'm lit up like the 4th of July
You're out with one of your pretty guys
Who never worked a day in his life
I've been on the grindstone trying to make it right
With the songs and the money and god and my mama
The signs say go, not to stop
While the summer erodes into nothin'
We left somethin' there on the table and fate just blew it away
Like some ancient law that I must obey
And I'm burnin' through the bottle
While my mind draws a map of your face
Gotta find my way back to that holy place
I was sweatin' in the Tennessee sun
10 hour shifts out in Lebanon
I was liftin' all day on that line
Tendin' a bar at the end of the night
That old sky was crumblin'
But I kept rumblin'
Them girls meant nothin'
I was just runnin' from the pain
You and your pretty boys it's exactly the same
Let em play make pretend while my mind draws a map of your face
Gotta find my way back to that holy place
Do you think of me honey
When all that money ain't enough just to make you smile?
Well it's late September,
You can't remember the summer that just passed you by
Babe, ain't it strange?
I know it ain't my fault but I'll take the blame
And I'm burnin' through the bottle
While my mind draws a map of your face
Gotta find my way back to that holy place
