A Simple Yes or No

Trevor Garrod

Hold on honey I love ya
Its easy to say don't cost anything
This is serious please
We don't have much time

For pretty words or love songs
Promises are cheap
No one really knows how long we've got
I don't need you to tell me I'm wrong
Its the only thing that you got right

There's a shadow upon me
Taller than oak trees
Taller than the pines
I'm not afraid of those carpenter birds
Beating down my old side board
They want it straight from the gut

A simple yes or no
Theres' no further we can go
If you need convincing I don't think it will work
There's a new day I can feel it
But I can't explain it
Any explanation is no substitute for truth

It was a summer of fuck ups
Another saddle to cinch up
I tried to keep the horse from biting me
Is that smoke on the rise
Or just a little taste of what the future holds

Pointless inventions
Obsolescent intentions
That fall like dew before the dawn
We're peering over the edge
Trying to find a safe way down
Lets get down to what counts

A simple yes or no
Are we broken or are we whole
Are we wicked are we kind
Are we ready for the light
There's a new day I can feel it
There's no way to explain it
Any explanation is no better than a lie

Feeling aweful useless
Tangled up in a loose mess
Holding back the blowing sand slowly filling up this hole
I've been digging it special for you
A place where we can hide our broken hearts

I'm terrified of the morning
Like a lover or old man won't know
What the wicked wind's blown onto the glass
My windshield is covered in dust
I traced a lazy circle round the foot print of a little bird

A simple yes or no
Its a hallow hope I know
Maybe someone's watching over all of us with love
But I can't believe it
I don't know how to explain it
How would you explain the setting sun to the night
