O' Jacob, O' Israel

from Anon by Riesage

lyrics

Our whispers
Our Burdens
Our Promises
Well, nobody heard them

And now we’re alone
With a whisper,
Caught in my throat

And I know
I know you know
You love him

But remember

The night you broke down at my parent’s dancing to disco
Drinking rum and cokes
We weren’t that old

You said, “Slow down. You’re too young to act so old.”
I said, “I’m older than most.”
You said, “You’re white as a ghost.”

O’Jacob, O’Israel
Your answers don’t help
I’m still tired and weary
I guess God must of missed me
And my feet begin to patter
But, I can’t quite catch the gravel
And I whisper O’Brother

I could, I know

I could call her up
I could make work
If I could only find the words
Just a simple verse

I’d be like those nights in the back seat of that blue Buick century
That old stereo and Tom Petty
We’re just singing along

A lalalalalalalalal
