what's the matter esther - jeremy ivey lyrics

Loading...

you wear your head like a trophy
you wear your mouth like a badge
you show your heart to the watchman
like you’ve got some right to brag

you come in through the door
like you’re looking for a war
but all you’ve got is pride
and it ain’t worth fighting for

you say the moon is all cracked up
and the sky is too corrupt
but what’s the matter esther?
what’s the trouble babe?
what’s tearing you up?

you put your guns on the table
your rabbit’s foot and noose
you poison your own drink
and you laugh at the abuse

you’re staring at the floor
like you’ve never seen one before
then you shattеr into pieces
like you’rе frozen to the core
you say your tongue is stuck
like a stuffed garbage truck
but what’s the matter esther?
what’s the trouble babe?
what’s tearing you up?

you throw your gaze out the window
you throw your mind in the street
where people change positions
where doom and dealers meet

you come out of the trance
and scream at circumstance
and the pettiness of love
but your words they make no sense

you say your luck is out of luck
and there’s oceans in your guts
but what’s the matter esther?
what’s the trouble babe?
what’s tearing you up?
