Despondent Songtext
von Circus Trees

she′s alone because no one can know
that she's been drowning in sorrow
she lives in a house by the water
she was called a mother

she′s got a baby boy
that she doesn't love anymore
she doesn't know how to support
by now he′s on the river floor

she′s got a baby boy
that she doesn't love anymore
she doesn′t know how to support
by now he's on the river floor


he works a day job
then he takes the load off
sometimes he goes too far
sometimes he leaves scars

he ′s been drinking all the molasses
right out from the cabinets
he beat them 'til they were lifeless
now he has to live with oppress

he′s been drinking all the molasses
right out from the cabinets
he beat them 'til they were lifeless
now he has to live with oppress

she hangs her head in shame with thoughts of what she's done
they dragged the river, they found no trace, long since gone
barely holding it together, unresponsive
a lifetime of guilt, nothing but despondence

she doesn′t love anymore
