I need some hope.
I'm at the end of my rope.
I need some sunshine to keep me in line.
No I ain't leaving 'till I found some soul.
Got me some pieces, but I want to be whole.
...and I've been stacking up stones
Next to my elder wood throne.
Just enough to build a home.
Our hearts sank low with the news of the levy.
When did it get so heavy?
I couldn't drown my sorrows and neither could you.
When did it get so heavy?
I'm always on my soapbox.
I'm always giving answers you don't want.
I'm always whistlin' familiar tunes -
'Cause I don't know the words, and neither do you.
I'll tell your name to the leaves, that whisper in the breeze.
They'll sing my melodies to you when I leave.
Our hearts sank low with the news of the levy.
When did it get so heavy?
I couldn't drown my sorrows and neither could you.
When did it get so heavy?
And now we're back to square one.
And now we're loading the gun.
How did we get so heavy?
How did we get so heavy?
