Daily Bread

There's a motion in daily silence

That's the yeses swimming round my head

I need to listen to my conscience

The world puts me down instead

I have four walls and they're to watch me

The blankness jumps right off the page

My fingers try to tear the paper

A bitter moment is almost dead

It's almost dead

Come take my hand

Thought I'd tell the bit of it

And what makes sense

And wait for all that I offer

And they take my only bread

And I leave another example of

Well it leaves me, at about a thousand miles

I feel the beating of the heartbreak

I feel the beating of the sun

And as I'm getting any closer

Well I'm more than full of you

In this place

This hell

Come take my hand

Thought I'd tell the bit of it

And what makes sense

And wait for all that I offer

And they take my only bread

There's only so much I will take

Bitterness is my rage

And wait for all that I offer

And they take my only bread

Give yourself a break

Your only bread

Your only bread

And they're down there

See 'em lined up

They're hungry on the pavement, feed them

When they lay their hands out for a bit of your spare change

I see the ones that are ignoring them

You know their pockets are lined full of gold

Clearly lined with their golden veins

Come take my hand

Thought I'd tell the bit of it

And what makes sense

They wait for all that I offer

And they take my only bread

There's only so much I should take

Bitterness is no rage

They wait for all that I offer

And they take my only bread

Your only bread

But I sell the bread

Their only bread

They look down, down

Oh they bring you down

While all around them they line 'em on the docks, one by one

For the rope around their ankle, the other end there is a rock

One by one they dunk them over

Sinking them over down into the ocean

But then it's useless

It has been for

Come take my hand

Thought I'd tell the bit of it

And what of it makes sense

And wait for all that I offer

And they take my only bread

There's only so much I will take

Bitterness is my rage

And wait for all that I offer

And they leave empty hands

Down

Oh they're sending them down

One by one they knock them over

And they just sink down

Suddenly down

A simple down

Let's all lay down
