Ben Gibbard – Oh, Woe lyrics
Oh, woe why do you stay
And make me feel this awful way?
You filled my heart with your solemn tune
And an endless burning bluish hue
It's been a basement of a year
And all I want's for you to disappear
But oh, woe you caught my eye
I thought that I'd give you a try
But you're nothing like the way you looked
In all those famous songs and books
And now I see how you snuff the light
And kill the ones who hold you inside
And I can feel you grow in me like a forest of grief
It's so confounding trying to cut you down
Trying to find a place to begin
Oh, woe please hear this plea
To walk away and leave me be
I've weathered more than I can take
Of your ever-present lonely ache
It's been a basement of a year
And all I want's for you to disappear
It's been a basement of a year
And all I want's for you to disappear
All I want's for you to disappear
And make me feel this awful way?
You filled my heart with your solemn tune
And an endless burning bluish hue
It's been a basement of a year
And all I want's for you to disappear
But oh, woe you caught my eye
I thought that I'd give you a try
But you're nothing like the way you looked
In all those famous songs and books
And now I see how you snuff the light
And kill the ones who hold you inside
And I can feel you grow in me like a forest of grief
It's so confounding trying to cut you down
Trying to find a place to begin
Oh, woe please hear this plea
To walk away and leave me be
I've weathered more than I can take
Of your ever-present lonely ache
It's been a basement of a year
And all I want's for you to disappear
It's been a basement of a year
And all I want's for you to disappear
All I want's for you to disappear
