lyrics

Workhorse
I'm being honest
It pains me to wait
I see you wrestle it down
To collect what's left of your wage
Barely an artist
There's no time to breathe
Just coming and going, never ends to the means
You said you wanted to understand


Upon the light eternal
Come pealing out the words
Round the bit you carry home to me
And I know you wanted better, but
Now beneath the silence
My sound is stricken dumb
I see the moment metastasize


And become and hour
And on from there it went
Burning a hole somewhere deep inside my diaphragm
My lungs could burst open
I still cling to your reasons
Pull up the rocks from your fields
And clear out the path to lead you back home every night
Where pardoned eyes and arms wait to hold you

Hold you until your will is broken
I'm broken for your love
(Or am I stranger still inside?)
The sweat is so thick that I can taste it
The truth is I'm in love
With a warrior returned
I couldn't have done better
You're haunted by my stupid smile
I will work inside your dreams for life

Alright, just give me a minute

A little word for you:
Don't let me stand out in the dark
Don't leave me standing in the dark
