Oxen Hope

Mirah

You sent me off without a warning
It wasn't just a threat and man that was no joke
Did you know you'd struck the final blow
To my faithful oxen hope
We thought we knew we wanted what we had
But you busted your side of the yoke
So I left with almost nothing but a gaping hole
Yes, I did, I really went for broke

No matter how much I weigh or like a boxer I've trained
Seems like the future's always gonna have its way
Of knocking me down, should I fold or spread
My fortune hand on this hard rock bed

I don't question, no, I don't doubt
Now that I've tried living with and without
That love's a hard, hard muscle to grow
And harder still to let it go

We'd both commandeered a ship or two
We'd had our fun, yeah, we'd had a few
But when the wheel spun round and the water flowed
We were in hip deep before we felt the cold

The rides we rode had danger in 'em
We thought we could last, we were real strong swimmers
But we got flooded, yes, we got rolled
And we both went down soon as you cut the rope

I've been wondering lately if ever I'll find
Someone to hold me like you once held mine
Should I give up or should I keep on trying
Should I move on or should I keep on lying
To myself by saying it's all better this way
But all the life is gone I had wanted to stay
And now I've grown up, I am ages older
And I can feel that bearing down upon my shoulders
