lyrics

AS I LEAVE YOU

Please forgive my self indulgence
When I ask you ladies and gentlemen to consider
In your own private way how best to
Fuck yourself
Sometimes I jest

Every now and then I get a taste of true remorse
And I remember how others suffer so much more
Nah forget it man, here's our song

When I was a boy, I felt paranoid
Everybody always wanna fuck with me
And as a young lad, never knew where to stand
Right or left, you all sound like the man
When I came of age and got myself laid
All my problems never seemed to go away
Now that I'm grown and left on my own
Ain't nobody really caring where I'm from

It's a waste of time, I say
Oh and by the way
Fuck your opinion
I don't want inside your game

How do I quantify for you non believers
How the church of non Jesus
Came to a non thesis
From a non religion
For a non people, non grieving
I ask myself why I'm just now leaving

Spent time under earth
Fifteen years or more
I kept it all to myself
But I've got one thing left

These words I give you:
Stay with the moment or die to what matters

about

Brother Ox Shady Grove, Pennsylvania

Brother Ox was a band with an idea behind it. Labor, societal pressure, anguish of the common man: listen to the first album, you hear these themes. This was a good thing.

But it was also an excuse to hide.

Volume 2 is full of characters you know in your personal experience, and some you haven't met yet. It's the same for us. Is it rock or something worse? Are we traitors? To what cause? None.
