William Hale - Caverns of Coal Lyrics

With all of the things that are good in my life
It's a wonder I ever would depart from there
But this town drives away every love that I find
It consumes me with secrets that I never will share

And if you look around, you might notice the same
We've been blanketed since birth in this veil of despair
But when I step away and look at all that has changed
I can finally hope I might make it somewhere
I can finally feel I might make it somewhere

There is a crust which has developed on the surface of my soul
And thorn which has torn through the skin of my heart
But in every forgotten cavern of coal
There are diamonds that burn with the power of the stars
