Oedipus Lyrics by Biz Barclay

2024

I stole your hatchet so that I could cut out my tongue
I never asked if you wanted it back cause my body went and grew itself another one
And I never wallow in the sins of my father
A story told twice is a bore
Prodigal daughter rolls back like the water
Dian drags by the hair to the shore
‘Cause my brain still tries to kill me when I’m sober
Doesn’t seem to care if I’m alone
Haven’t touched a drop since I’ve been home though
Turns out it was my fault all along
Like Oedipus despеrate I ran the gauntlet back homе
Endlessly vengefully always pretending we’re not overdue on a blood loan
And I never wallow in the sins of my father
A family is the enemy of war
Time’s only one call washed down with the bottle
Alas I exist no more
And how to forgive all the people who lived in these
Hallowed halls time has swept bare?
The sheets have worn thin
Soaked with all that I've been
I was never brave at all
My brain still tries to kill me when I’m sober
Doesn’t seem to care if I’m alone
You know I blamed the crashes on the old roads
Turns out I just like to chase the fall
Turns out it was my fault all along
Turns out I was never brave at all
I was just there
