Lucas Lawrence - Shadow of the mountain

The first shot of tequila was the worst
Now I'm taking it down just to quench a thirst
And the first cigarette it made me cough and shake
Now I reach for it the moment I wake up
We grew up in the shadow of the mountains
Fell in love to the sounds of the sea
There's a pull I feel to return to home
And I cannot explain why
Cause I'm trying my best to live
And not hard enough to die
The first lie that I told was just a bend
Now the truth is somewhere closer to the end
And the first shame that I felt had a strong sting
Now I'm sure that I'm out cold before I have to face that thing
We grew up in the shadow of the mountains
Fell in love to the sounds of the sea
There's a pull I feel to return to home
And I cannot explain why
Cause I'm trying my best to live
And not hard enough to die
The moment I remember on the stairs
Then I'm dancing oblivious, unaware
The last time that I called my parents home
They were both so kind and gentle
That my heart felt tired and lonesome
We grew up in the shadow of the mountains
Fell in love to the sounds of the sea
There's a pull I feel to return to home
And I cannot explain why
Cause I'm trying my best to live
And not hard enough to die
