InMe - Hymn: Ivory Elder lyrics
[InMe - Hymn: Ivory Elder lyrics]
Father, oh dear Father won’t you
Come in from the cold?
I can hear the drunks in the background
& it’s getting kind of old
Oh Father won’t you come in from the cold?
Someday when I’m older I’ll be
Eating these here words
The grand scheme closes in on me
Sobriety grows blurred
Oh Father I’ll be eating these here words
And I know that the poison clouds
The screams & the noise &
We nearly got away this time but
You cannot escape these problems
But these so called heroes
Are all so delirious
That they’ll never get away this time
Giving up giving up is our only crime
Softly longing for a hero in
A life of living hard
Tinkling the ivories in an elephant graveyard
Oh Father won’t you stop living so hard?
Come in from the cold?
I can hear the drunks in the background
& it’s getting kind of old
Oh Father won’t you come in from the cold?
Someday when I’m older I’ll be
Eating these here words
The grand scheme closes in on me
Sobriety grows blurred
Oh Father I’ll be eating these here words
And I know that the poison clouds
The screams & the noise &
We nearly got away this time but
You cannot escape these problems
But these so called heroes
Are all so delirious
That they’ll never get away this time
Giving up giving up is our only crime
Softly longing for a hero in
A life of living hard
Tinkling the ivories in an elephant graveyard
Oh Father won’t you stop living so hard?
