Testo We Don't Eat - James Vincent McMorrow

Testo della canzone We Don't Eat (James Vincent McMorrow), tratta dall'album Early In The Morning

If this is redemption, why do I bother at all?

There's nothing to mention and nothing has changed

So I'd rather be working for something than praying for the rain

So I wander on 'til someone else is saved

I moved to the coast, under a mountain

Swam in the ocean, slept on my own

At dawn, I would watch the sun cut ribbons through the bay

I'd remember all the things my mother wrote

That we don't eat until your father's at the table

And we don't drink until the devil's turned to dust

And never once has any man I've met been able to love

So if I were you, I'd have a little trust

Two thousand years I've been in that water

Two thousand years, sunk like a stone

Desperately reaching for nets that the fishermen have thrown

I'm tryin' to find a little bit of hope

But me, I was holding all of my secrets soft and hid

Pages were folded, then there was nothing at all

So if in the future, I might need myself a saviour

I'll remember what was written on that wall

That we don't eat until your father's at the table

And we don't drink until the devil's turned to dust

And never once has any man I've met been able to love

So if I were you, I'd have a little trust

But am I an honest man and true?

Have I been good to you at all?

Oh, I'm so tired of playing these games

We'd just be running down

The same old lines, the same old stories of

Breathless trains and worn-down glories

Houses burning, worlds that turn on their own

So, we don't eat until your father's at the table

We don't drink until the devil's turned to dust

And never once has any man I've met been able to love

So if I were you, my friend, learn to have just a little bit of trust
