Tags:Country metal ballad with a slow half-time pulse,picked acoustic guitar over low-tuned chugging electrics,and a steady kick-snare thump that leaves room for air. Verse rides sparse fingerpicks and restrained palm-mutes; pre-chorus opens with rising harmonies and tom rolls; chorus lands on wide gang vocals and ringing chords. Raw close-mic lead vocal with doubles on the hook,a brief slide-guitar swell and reversed cymbal before each lift,warm and bruised mix with a heavy low end.,metal,slow,country,vocal
[Verse 1] Morning on the road Dust on the bread A mother counts her sons By the names she said Walls with broken stone Shoes in the sand A boy holds tight to smoke In a shaking hand [Pre-Chorus] Tell me who keeps score When the sky turns gray Tell me who can sleep When the sirens stay [Chorus] Hold the olive branch Hold it up high Hold the olive branch While the children cry We were born to live Not born to burn Hold the olive branch Till the tide can turn [Verse 2] At the market gate The oranges spilled A father bit his tongue By the wire and steel Old men on the steps Say the same sad prayer Every grief in the room Has a name in the air [Pre-Chorus] Tell me who keeps score When the sky turns gray Tell me who can sleep When the sirens stay [Chorus] Hold the olive branch Hold it up high Hold the olive branch While the children cry We were born to live Not born to burn Hold the olive branch Till the tide can turn [Bridge] I have seen enough Of the folded flags I have heard enough Of the empty bags If mercy has a home Let it find this land Let the tired hands Learn to heal again [Chorus] Hold the olive branch Hold it up high Hold the olive branch While the children cry We were born to live Not born to burn Hold the olive branch Till the tide can turn
