Run River North - Foxbeard Lyrics
I knew a man who found a forest overseasHe grew his beard like the grounds bared treesCallous his hands, his heart bled dryHe kept the fire in the clutch of his eyesPainted with a dark stroke, dirty on the canvasCreation was holy, we chose against himAnd the devil knows he's evil, no need to proclaimIt's the choices we make that bring gloryGlory to his name (x4)Mr. Fox I know you've got a secret to tellBut folks, we live just to hear ourselvesKeep talk, talk, talkNon-stop, stop, stopAnd it goes, goes, goesUntil we know, know, knowKnow not what we sayI knew a lady lost the forest for the treesShe grew a lust to bury all underneathShe cut to their heart, she bled them dryShe kept the fire burning up to the skyShe's building up her kingdom of sticks and stonesI hear the words in between tend to never holdWas she living ever after or making believe?She kept away from the heart the things unseen,Things unseen, things unseenThings unseen.And I don't want to be your monkey boyBut my cymbals are crashingMy teeth, oh, they chatterCause I'm cold, cold, coldWithout your claps, claps, clapsAnd I don't know, know, knowIf this is ever,If this is ever gonna stop!Ever gonna stop! (x7)
