Solemn Oath - Band of Horses

Maybe I should go back, I’m gonna think about that

A little bit more like I did before, miserable and mad

This one kicks like a mule, plays me for a fool, breaks all the rules

It’s doing it wrong, but it’s moving along, can be very cruel

Right in the door, I’m tired, I’m sore

Nary a hi, no welcome home

Yet the minute I’m up, it’s pissing me off

I was yelling so loud last night I thought the cops would surely come

Six or six-two-five, should keep me alive, keep me alive

Now do a little turn, careful with your words, everything is fine

But I’m lucky as fuck, it still ain’t enough, sick to my gut, having to say

You sit here 'til the coast is clear, I’ll send for you one day

I shouldn’t repeat it, this sounds ridiculous

And I swore a solemn oath

Never to admit it’s the harsh tones of criticism seep in

To my bones

Look what I did, I’m happy with it

Aren’t you happy for me?

I love you so much, I’m gonna throw up, watch my stuff

Hold this for me please

Try not to sound bitter or to fondly remember

The dark times of the past

Like I don’t deserve it or I’m not even worth it, I can do

This or that, this or that
