Light In August - Early Day Miners

The southern cross provides

Then buries them alive underfoot

The frozen days at fall

The burdening weight at work

Belief in the cause

The light in august hides

The distance in our lives

Weathered through the night

To carry what is mine

The wash of screendor haze

As autumn fades away to frost

The valley floor goes pale

The last of harvest baile

In wait for cold

The light in august hides

The distance in our lives

Weathered through the night

To carry what is mine
