Oxen Hope
(专辑: Changing Light - 2014)
You sent me off without a
warning Wasn't just a
threat and man, that was no joke Did you know you'd struck the
final blow To my faithful oxen hope? We thought we knew we wanted what we had But you busted your side of the
yoke So I
left with almost nothing but a
gaping whole Yes, I
did really went for broke No matter how much I
weigh, like a
boxer I
train Seems like the
future is always gonna have it's way Knocking me down, should I
fold or spread My fortune hand on this hard rock bed? And I
don't question, no, I
don't doubt Now that I've tried living with and without That was a
hard, hard muscle to grow And harder still to let go We'd both commandeered a
ship or two We'd had our fun, yeah, we had a
few And wheels spun around and water flowed In here deep before we felt the
cold And the
ride we rode had danger in We thought we could last while we were real strong swimmers But we got flooded, yes, we got rolled And we both went down soon as you cut the
rope I've been wondering lately if ever I'd find Someone to hold me like he wanted mine Should I
give up or should I
keep on trying? Should I
move on or should I
keep on lying to myself By saying it's all better this way But all the
life is gone, I
want to stay Now I've ruined it, you sound ages old And I
can feel that bearing down a
part of my shoulders
