One More Chore
I give, and I give til there ain't no more
Alone, depleted, just everyone's whore
Your boot on my back I look to the floor
Love demands yet one more chore
==========================
Tired of being the strong hand onshore
I'm treadin' deep waters without an oar
White silence betrays the embers of war
Love demands yet one more chore
===========================
Ties that cajole slip knot out the door
No one and nowhere to run for
What game is this without a score
Love demands yet one more chore
===========================
Want to close this empty store
Devoid of what you're lookin for
But a slave will never come before
Loves demand of one more chore
==========================
Frayed, but not unwound at core
Strings that beat forevermore
And loyalty's rescue comes to the fore
When love demands one more chore
============================
