Emma Langford - Bear This Child lyrics

Artist: Emma Langford

album: Quiet Giant


I never chose to bear this child, it just sort of wouldn't go away
And oh but I thought "well,
Wouldn't it be nice?" 'til it was here one day
And now I can't shake it, I can't drink enough to drink it away
Kicks me when I'm down, and harder when I'm on the up
I never chose to keep your life but you wouldn't let me be
Cries in the night as I'm drifting off, you've used up all of me
And now I can't break free, break away
Kicks me when I'm down, and harder when I'm on the up
Picks the meat from my bones and dries me up
And I didn't want to be an angry person
Lost control when the seed set roots
Made me sick, made me weak, now I live in walking boots
Good for walking, I'm done talking, I'm done with untruths
Kicks me when I'm down, and harder when I'm on the up
Picks the meat from my bones and dries me up
