lyrics

Let Gravity do its Work

©Tristan O'Malley

digging
digging with a shovel
digging a hole in your front yard
Thought that I could do it
Thought that I could make it
I never thought the ground
could be so hard

Sometimes I want to sit back
and let gravity do it's work.

Breathing
are you breathing,
laughing, sighing?
I never hear from you anymore
so I'm digging six feet under
a hole in your front lawn
that you can't miss
when you walk out the door

and as it pulls me down,
who am I to argue?
one more prisoner with no will
I tried to float away,
and reach you in the heavens
it holds me down
and keeps me still
it holds me still and it keeps me
it keeps me still and it keeps...
it keeps me still and it...
it keeps me still and...
it keeps me still...
