We Don't Eat (Acoustic Version) - James Vincent McMorrow

Lyrics by:James Vincent McMorrow

Composed by:James Vincent McMorrow

If this is redemption why do I bother at all

There's nothing to mention nothing has changed

Still I'd rather be working for something

Than praying for the rain

So I wander on someone else is saved

I moved to the coast under a mountain

Swam in the ocean and I slept on my own

At dawn I would watch the sun

Cut ribbons through the bay

I'd remember all the things my mother wrote

That we don't eat until your father's at the table

We don't drink until the devil's turned to dust

Never once has any man I've met been able to love

So if I were you I'd have a little trust

Two thousand years I've been in that water

Two thousand years sunk like a stone

Desperately reaching for nets

That the fishermen have thrown

Trying to find a little bit of hope

Me I was holding

All of my secrets soft and hid

Pages were folded

Then there was nothing at all

So if in the future

I might need myself a savior

I'll remember what was written on that wall

That we don't eat until your father's at the table

We don't drink until the devil's turned to dust

And never once has any man

I've met been able to love

So if I were you

I'd have a little trust

Am I an honest man and true

Have I been good to you at all

Oh I'm so tired of playing these games

We'd just be running down

The same old lines

The same old stories of

Breathless trains and

Worn down glories

And houses burning

Worlds that turn on their own

So we don't eat until your father's at the table

We don't drink until the devil's turned to dust

Never once has any man I've met been able to love

So if I were you my friend

I'd learn to have just a little bit of trust
