Give Me Grief

Give Me Grief Lyrics

What can grow under the snow?
I don't know it's so unknown
She's the me the sunlight shone
Upon the glow so long ago
The embryo may not be frozen
Swallow the bell, it tells me so
Though it's unspoken as we float
The whole boat knows the ocean's cold

The whole boat knows the ocean's cold
But there she blows so here we go

I don't dream 'cause I don't sleep
I walk the streets and count the sheep
These dreams are freedom
Property uneasy street, illusory
At best, at worst it's lunacy
And I'm no fan of fantasy
But when I tried to beat the heat
The heat beat me repeatedly

The heat beat me repeatedly
The heat beat me repeatedly

And if we meet
You'll see through me immediately

Even they, yes even they
Even they, yes even they
Even they

But if you close the open door
It won't be opened like before
But what's in store behind the door?
Painting rainy days galore
[?] torture to be sure
All of this but also more
[?]

Honestly I thought I'd need
Community to offer me
My shell of solidarity
A caring family sympathy
Groceries for the whole week
I'm so completely through with beef
And I have friends to get me clean
So I need God to give me grief

The G-O-D to give me grief
The G-O-D to give me grief
[?] for the recipe
So God come on and give me grief

Feel something immediately
Feel something immediately
Feel something unceasingly
We need to grieve on our own
