Musical Worldview: Patty Griffin, "When It Don't Come Easy"

c8522a64-3241-4aec-a5ff-21cf0d228e6c.jpg

“I don't know nothing except change will come
Year after year what we do is undone
Time keeps moving from a crawl to a run
I wonder if we're gonna ever get home

You're out there walking down a highway
And all of the signs got blown away
Sometimes you wonder if you're walking in the wrong direction

But if you break down
I'll drive out and find you
If you forget my love
I'll try to remind you
And stay by you when it don't come easy

So many things that I had before
That don't matter to me now
Tonight I cry for the love that I've lost
And the love I've never found
When the last bird falls
And the last siren sounds
Someone will say what's been said before
Its only love we were looking for”

Musical Worldview: Sammy Brue, "Lay Me Down"

“I did what I could
Until I couldn’t anymore
When I fell flat
I fell flat on the floor
You gave what you had
Until you couldn’t anymore
I think that’s the reason most people are poor

So lay me down
Don’t let me free
Because when all went to Hell
You depended on me
And I failed”

“Whatcha gonna do
When the shackles fall?
When the shackles fall?
What you oughta do is melt them down
Melt them down
Turn them into tools and make a garden
On the prison grounds
Turn your chains to roses, child
Tear it down
Tear it down

Step back, Jack, from the darkness”
