"Buyin' Dirt" lyrics

"Buyin' Dirt"

There's a house in Harvest Creek
Wind's blowing through the trees, only thing that speaks
And the snow melts in the spring
And the wheels cutting through the weeds out on 19th

I'll be here for a little while
Till you call me back, back to my own life
I'll be shifting gears, blurring lines
Avoiding all my fears, push them to the side

Now I'm buying dirt, buying time
Pass it down, down the line
Waking up, just to find
This is yours, no, this ain't mine
This ain't mine
No, it ain't mine
It's not mine

Driving along telephone wires
They were calling me back home to the place I know
Looking up, the sky was on fire
Like a siren song, pulling me in with lies

I'll be here for a little while
Till you call me back, back to my own life
I'll be shifting gears, blurring lines
Avoiding all my fears, push them to the side

Now I'm buying dirt, buying time
Pass it down, down the line
Waking up, just to find
This is yours, no, this ain't mine
No, it ain't mine
No, it ain't mine
No, it's not mine
