lyrics

Trembling while I hold my pen and scratch out words of love
You’ve got enough already on your mind
Besides, I owe it to the trees and rocks and sky above
To generate the love that’s only mine

On my knees and clasping hands to look deeper inside
Scrub the floors that I ignored when I found you
Sifting through the nature and the nurture, take my time
With that old neglected childhood friend, the truth

I’ll be all right
I’ll be ok
Sure as stars that fade when night turns into day

I’ll write more songs
They’ll be more true
Hell, maybe someone out there understands like you

You’ll be all right
You’ll be ok
Hope he holds you like I’d hold you night and day

Walk without this weight I carry
Knowing this extraordinary love
Is what I’m made of

Trembling while I hold my tongue, I know you’re doing fine
You’ve got enough already on your plate
Besides, I know that as the stream runs clear between the pines
I need only to continue at its pace

The wind that finds me clasping hands, still praying on my knees
Is enough to get me up and walking on
The morning brings a mist that makes it difficult to see
But I finally trust myself to move along

I’ll marry still
I’ll have some kids
Teach them not to do the stupid shit I did

And if they do
They’ll be ok
Just like us, they’ll have to learn it the hard way

I’ll love them still
Like I love you
Like I finally love my childhood friend, the truth

Walk without this weight I carry
Knowing this extraordinary love
Is what we’re made of

Walk without the weight I carry
Knowing that the stream will bring me by
To stop and say hi

about

Queen Cabbage New York, New York

Originating in late 2017 at SUNY Purchase, Queen Cabbage is a folky art rock band dedicated to synthesizing silliness, seriousness, life, death, the beautiful, and the grotesque into earnest, powerful, emotionally immediate music for eager feet to dance and stumble to, for thoughtful hearts to beat and break to, and—most importantly—for authority figures to disapprove of.
