Give Me Grief

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Patrick Stickles] What can grow under the snow? I don't know, it's so unknown She's the mean, the sunlight shown Upon the globe so long ago The embryo may not be frozen Swollen belly tells me so Though it's unspoken as we float The whole boat knows the ocean's cold [Refrain: Patrick Stickles] The whole boat knows the ocean's cold But thar she blows, so here we go [Verse 2: Eric Harm] I don't dream 'cause I don't sleep I walk the streets and count the sheep These dreams of freedom Property, uneasy street, illusory At best, at worst, it's lunacy And I'm no fan of fantasy But when I tried to beat the heat The heat beat me repeatedly [Refrain: Eric Harm] The heat beat me repeatedly The heat beat me repeatedly And if we meet You'll see through me immediately Immediately, yes, evenly Either they, yes, evenly Even they [Bridge: Eric Harm] But if you close the open door It won't be opened like before But what's in store behind the door? Pain and rainy days galore Want to torture, to be sure All of this but also more A love in all its forms Gloria de amor [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3: Patrick Stickles] (Hey) Honestly, I thought I'd need Community to offer me My share of solidarity A caring family sympathy Groceries for the whole week I'm so completely through with beef And I'd have friends to get me clean So I need God to give me grief [Refrain: Patrick Stickles] The G-O-D to give me grief The G-O-D to give me grief It's needed for the recipe So God, come on and give me grief [Outro: Patrick Stickles] Feel something immediately Feel something immediately Feel something unceasingly We need to grieve on our own
