the 1865 (ny) - beholden lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
no candles for us
no lanterns for us
so we create our own signs and signal with our eyes
a higher spirit’s moving within us
guiding us out of this consumerist darkness

where are bodies are captured to breed
and multiplied for commodity
well, that was the plan but mother nature did not agree
therein i was forced to underland

[chorus]
where i was pretty enough in the dark
i was woman enough in the dark
in the blackest hour, i wasn’t too black
i was beholden

i was pretty enough in the dark
i was woman enough in the dark
in the blackest hour, i wasn’t too black
i was beholden

[verse 2]
therein i was forced to work the land
and abuse it anyway i can
sometimes they’d push me like a man
unless it was the moonlight hour
then the sun would rise again
and i was back out tending the fields in the light
[?]
[?]

[chorus]
where i was pretty enough in the dark
i was woman enough in the dark
in the blackest hour, i wasn’t too black
i was beholden

i was pretty enough in the dark
i was woman enough in the dark
in the blackest hour, i wasn’t too black
i was beholden

[bridge]
no candles for us
no lanterns for us

[outro]
i was beholden
i was beholden
beholden
