lyrics

The Year In Tears

~~~

In the still, in the dark
I hear things falling apart
In every corner
Of my humble abode

I'll just lie awake and worry
Till my life can chime no more
Any fool can be happy
Or so I'm told

Last night I heard the sirens
Just over the blue trash hills
O'er the idiotic barking
From dog to dog to dog

I'm a soul without a landlord
Can't you hear me weep and moan?
O'er the moors, up through the floorboards
Crying, 'bring my body home'

All these calls to the cavalry
Might fall upon deaf ears
It only seems like a lifetime
The year in tears
The year in tears

Thunder rolling in the darkness
Heavy stars are hanging low
To the sound of crumbling mortar
Oh the walls of Jericho

The deal goes down underground
Oblivion, thy will be done
By and by, I'll see your devil
And raise you one

Oh, the big chief couldn't be reached
In his hall of drunken mirrors
It only seemed like a lifetime
The year in tears
The year in tears

Scott Hrabko image

Scott Hrabko Kansas City, Missouri

Kansas City's Scott Hrabko is an independent singer/songwriter who has followed his own mercurial muse since the town's late- 80s indie rock scene.

“Hrabko’s rootsy songs are filled with trap doors, hidden nooks, and secret passageways. They’re like those dreams within comfortably familiar houses that suddenly have brand new rooms.”
Mike Warren - No Depression ... more
