Thistle & Weeds |
|
|
|
Spare me your judgements and spare me your dreams |
|
Cause recently mine have been tearing my seams |
|
I sit alone in this winter clarity which clouds my mind |
|
Alone in the wind and the rain you left me |
|
It's getting dark darling, too dark to see |
|
And I'm on my knees, and your faith in shreds, it seems |
|
|
|
Corrupted by the simple sniff of riches blown |
|
I know you have felt much more love than you've shown |
|
And I'm on my knees and the water creeps to my chest |
|
|
|
But plant your hope with good seeds |
|
Don't cover yourself with thistle and weeds |
|
Rain down, rain down on me |
|
Look over your hills and be still |
|
The sky above us shoots to kill |
|
Rain down, rain down on me |
|
|
|
But I will hold on |
|
I will hold on hope |
|
|
|
I begged you to hear me, there's more than flesh and bones |
|
Let the dead bury the dead, they will come out in droves |
|
But take the spade from my hands and fill in the holes you've made |
|
|
|
But plant your hope with good seeds |
|
Don't cover yourself with thistle and weeds |
|
Rain down, rain down on me |
