marian call - independence lyrics

Loading...

curl up on the concourse floor
this is how your body feels
this is what your shoulder’s for
no illusions anymore
this is what your lessons meant
the action and its consequent, oh

you found a patch to call your own, but
you cannot raise a barn alone
you cannot raise a barn alone

and i curse the burden made you think you should
and i curse the blind spot made you think you did

the frontier lives on in the dreams of certain men
all thinking themselves heroes, all wild+eyed to defend
the right to never make a village square
the right to never lay a brick for someone else’s sake, oh oh

you found a field to claim to own, but
you cannot raise a barn alone, no
you cannot raise a barn alone alone alone

[ and the road asked us, who will share the load?
and we all said not me not me not me
“our hands are full with all we’ve bought
we cannot carry more,” we told the road

so the road asked, then who will do without?
and we all said, not me not me not me
“i’ve worked so hard, i don’t ask much
i need just what i need,” we told the road

so the road asked, then who will pay the price?
and we all said, not me not me not me
“make it someone far away
make it someone we can’t see
charge the people we don’t know”
we told the road ++ ]
aiah
oh oh

you fought and scr+pped and earned your own, but
you cannot raise a barn alone
you cannot raise a barn alone alone alone

shove until you shatter
shoulder to the wheel
’cause independence is a myth
but loneliness is real

and i curse the burden made you think you should
and i curse the blind spot made you think you did
