Ladd Mitchell - Mississippi Burning lyrics

More nightmares Someone wake me when they're through Stop my lover's ghost from trying to protrude (You're burning, you're burning) It's chaotic, but I've got it Your letter scratched across my throat Like some painter's ink spilled to canvas soiling parts of me Cover up, cover up, all the things you've lost I know this s**s but one day we'll meet up I miss the softness of your sound The taste of you left in my mouth Is Mississippi done yet burning? Such sounds like stomachs stinging I search out, but you cannot be found A red horizon in the south Is Mississippi done yet burning? Most nights bleed every feeling I must get back to you somehow I must get back to you Your shadow Now lies against the moon The skin I touched that once Kissed has come unglued (You're burning, you're burning) It's chaotic, but I've got it More screams than anyone should hear The voice of you stabs in my chest Forged and faithless Cover up, cover up, all the things you've lost I know this s**s but one day we'll meet up I miss the softness of your sound The taste of you left in my mouth Is Mississippi done yet burning? Such sounds like stomachs stinging I search out, but you cannot be found A red horizon in the south Is Mississippi done yet burning? Most nights bleed every feeling I must get back to you somehow I must get back to you Darling boy Lift your chin up for me now For my vein's are safe And I am smiling looking down I know you're out of breath You're hit by the way I've left Just hold me tight and true For I'll be waiting Waiting here for you Turn down these lights, I won't be found This haunting stops right here and now As permanent as eyes that fixed to me I'm dying without you, so let it be Turn down these lights, I won't be found This haunting stops right here and now As permanent as eyes that fixed to me I'm dying without you, so let it be Is Mississippi done yet burning? Most nights beat every feeling I must get back to you somehow I must get back to you
