My Yoke Is Heavy Lyrics - Distorted Ghost - Sparklehorse

(daniel dale johnston) 

In clusters we move through a farm 

Somewhere far off the thunder roaring 

And the fortune teller has fixed her sweetly eyes on my child 

Sometimes I climb high up in a tree 

And let the wind blow in my face 

Sometimes I leave my cares lying in piles 

Somewhat disturbing 

Is the sound of her singing 

When you know you don't deserve it 

You're not here today 

I feel just like an empty eggshell 

My yoke is heavy 

My yoke is heavy 

My voice is a little horse 

Galloping lost through the woods 

Calling your name 

It's new to me 

But just the same 

The earth is an old canvas painted over many times 

The poet rambles 

The world it scrambles 

But who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men 

Your shadow knows 

It's right behind you all the way 

Your shadow knows where you've been 

My yoke is heavy 

My yoke is heavy 

My yoke is heavy 

Sacred is the smile 

That opened up my mind 

And asked me come save me 

And rid my cold cold heart 

Of the dark deep gloom 

That took up so much room 

And my many spacious memories 

My yoke is heavy 

My yoke is heavy 

My yoke is heavy
