Oh father in silence I feel the need
to talk to you, to you
My head is a mess and I’m trying to preserve
what I know is true, is true
So true
Tell me the reasons why I sing these weary blues
I’ll give it a rest just as long as I know it’s true
I think I know yes I know it is true
Oh father I hear your footsteps to be
Inside this room, this room
I’m trying to listen but I just can’t seem
To stay in tune, in tune
It’s true, so true
Tell me the reasons why I sing these weary blues
I’ll give it a rest just as long as I know it’s true
I know yes I know it is true
Stark, folk-derived songs built on brittle acoustic guitars that conjure the image of a fire burning in the distance on a dark night. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 8, 2022
