Lyrics :

HuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHuuuhhhhhhhhhhhh

Got a call today, to see if I want to pay
To bring my body home, if things ever did go wrong
Wouldn't mind to pay, to bring my body to lay
In a place I do, in a place I do call home
In a tiny wooden box
Yeah
In a tiny wooden box

I was going around those days
Thinking everything was so damn good
So why'd it go away
For all the ones who are gone
We've been missing you
These feelings are
So damn strong
I was going around those days
Thinking everything
Thinking everything
Would be ok

HuhhhhhhhhHuuuuuuuuuh

What a time of year
It's very pleasant here
All the names I know
How the faces do grow old

All the hurting here
Each and every year
How we want it to we want it to we want it to be gone
So I'll write another song
Yeah I'll write another song

I was going around those days
Thinking everything was so damn good
So why'd it go away
For all the ones who are gone
We've been missing you
These feelings are
So damn strong
I was going around those days
Thinking everything
Thinking everything
Would be ok

If time heals everything
If time heals everything
If time heals everything
Then why do I

If time heals everything
If times heals everythingIf time heals everything
Then why do I
Still feel this painOh
Still feel this pain

I was going around those days
Thinking everything was so damn good
So why'd it go away
For all the ones who are gone
We've been missing you
These memories are Holding on
I was going around those days
I was going around those days
I was going around those days
Thinking everything
Thinking everything
Would be ok

This is real, raw, authentic, genuine American music .... played by Canadians

[kevinclark]

I'm most typically a metal head. The first song I heard from these guys was In Hell I'll be in Good Company, and I was hooked. Great sound, great vocals, great melodies. If you don't love this band, you've got no soul.

[smittywerbenjagermanjensen]

This got played at my friend's funeral a few days ago, as her coffin was led out the back.

RIP, you have some form of peace now, my love. 🩷

[mooseknuckle]

Be grateful for every morning you rise on this side of the dirt.

[dewdadew]

If you told me 10 years ago that the one of the most heaviest break down riffs around had a banjo & a mandolin in it, I would have called you crazy! I love these guys! Can’t wait for the new album.

[ericschilling]

This band is criminally underrated by the music industry.

[bulltrout]

Time does NOT heal everything.

Perfectly explained in song. Well done boys.

[johnstone]

man, I love these guys, they don't fit a specific genre, they are their own genre.

[METAL__MECHANIC]

Discovered this band earlier this year. I played "Honey you" in the morning while my 2 year old was eating breakfast and he was really into it. That song ended up being our family dance song at our wedding this past May.
Awesome original band.

[BrottenGuy]

Metal-Head here! You all never cease to amaze me. Great stuff, fellas! Every bit of success that comes your all’s way is MORE than deserved! In fact, I don’t even think you’ve yet to reach the heights you will.

Thank you, for your hard work, gentlemen! It’s greatly appreciated, on our end, as well! As a musician (vocalist) & artist (visual - graphic design, writer (lyricists), I truly appreciate great art. That’s exactly what you men create! Well done!

[RhapsodyInRags]

Lifelong rocker and metalhead here and yet these guys are easily one of the best three bands I've ever heard in my life.... In a world where everything's been done a million times before, it's hard to have a truly original sound that can't really be defined. This is it.

[Jarppibeer]

My dad past away 3 years ago. Thank you for this song guys. Never connected like this with a song. Can't stop listening!

[flatheadwarrior]

Crawdaddy with the sick rolls. Another hit for the squad that single handedly got me into folk/bluegrass. Well played boys

[dmc]

Thank you for the new song. Long time listener of your tunes and thank you for keeping the band intact these years. I know that is really hard to accomplish. You will be proud later in life.

Time is the key but the pain of losing friends and close family members does not go away. We relive it every day, or I'm sure that I do. It's a hurt that bottles of whiskey and other vices dull but cannot cure the memories of lost loved ones. We live on...somehow knowing our friends will feel the same hurt and pain when we pass.
I hope to see ya'll in Dallas soon.

[korinaallen]

These guys don't know how to make a bad song. And this one is NO exception. Perfect harmony. Profound, catchy lyrics. Love the grit, too. On repeat.

[nopoliticalcorrectness]

Great song, awesome band and a cool video. What do you need more. 👍

[Sisko-rpcz]

It's not necessary to say that this song is more than good. I'm very eager what comes in future. 😍

[burnyizland]

Ahhh, the Canadian badlands, so awesome to see them here. I love the thought of that music rolling over them, those wide open hollers spreading out over those wallows. This was perfect.

[IrishTechnicalThinker]

This band is like MMA of musicians, they mixed it up and combine all arts into one form. Love these fellas.

[cherylb]

THIS is why I have learned to play mandolin and banjo - because THIS is the kind of music I would like to hear comin' out of these instruments!! And y'all sound great live!
