lyrics

I've been down, I've been down
I've been down in the ground
There ain't no gold where I've been going
Ain't no diamonds in the ground

Ain't nobody know were down here
Ain't nobody hear us cry
All the others look right past us
All the others they're alright

Ain't no pretty women down here
No they're all scarred with tears
And all these brothers they've seen pain
We're just down here digging graves

We wear masks with painted smiles
Only fooling the ones above
Oh our demons stand beside us
Only our demons show us love

I've been down, I've been down
I've been down in the ground
There ain't no gold where I've been going
Ain't no diamonds in the ground.
