sounds like an aged Dylan,(vocals) not sure if intentional or not. I like the guitar work

Don’t sway everyone’s the same in here
Don’t stay no I cannot stand it in here
But don’t say to me that everything will be ok
I can’t see no light through this stained glass window
Today

Choke myself on my own tears
And now they have run dry
But I’m trying so hard to stop asking why
Can’t I change the way things worked out?

But I can’t think no more these years have all run dry
Now that I’m throwing dirt to stop this pain inside
And this black hole I see in the ground gets bigger
And it swallows me up and all the people with it endgame

These walls keep on closing in on me
I’m scared and finding it so hard to breathe
My hearts beating fast as all the anger builds up
Inside
I can’t change this guilty feeling I have I hide

Choke myself on my own tears
And now they have run dry
But I’m trying so hard to stop asking why
Can’t I change the way things worked out?

But I can’t think no more these years have all run dry
Now that I’m throwing dirt to stop this pain inside
And this black hole I see in the ground gets bigger
And it swallows me up and all the people with it endgame

Choke myself on my own tears
And now they have run dry
But I’m trying so hard to stop asking why
Can’t I change the way things worked out?

But I can’t think no more these years have all run dry
Now that I’m throwing dirt to stop this pain inside
And this black hole I see in the ground gets bigger
And it swallows me up and all the people with it endgame
Endgame

Dan Blackard finished this once then decided to rework it. He went back to the drawing room and came up with something that certainly qualifies as an atypical country subject.  He called it "The Soul Of The Earth"  basically a song that recognizes that the soul of the earth  has always been there. And always will be..... until the sun gobbles it up.

This is our contribution to:  https://soundcloud.com/silent-zen/sets/climate-change

As I listen to it I think it reminds me of Marshall Tucker.

Here are the lyrics:  The Soul Of The Earth
Lyrics;

The soul of earth in orbit
Around a blazing sun
Spinning as it travels
When something new had just begun 

Oceans waves were rising
And collapsing with a roar
From the water comes new life
And it crawled upon the shore

Way off in the distance
planes fly across the sky
The world is getting smaller
With each day  passing by

The fields that once ran wild
Became cement and steel
The old world overtaken
Replaced by the surreal 

Trees that stood so mighty
Cut and dragged away
Bright lights from the city
Turn the nighttime into day

The world as it had been
Began to disappear 
And seemed to lose the focus
Of what had been so clear 

There before the time
The creatures left the sea
Shaking as the whole world shook
To bring new masters down from trees

There from the beginning 
until all life will cease
The soul of earth has been there
Waiting for release
