Oh, woe why do you stay
|
And make me feel this awful way?
|
You filled my heart with your solemn tune
|
And an endless burning blush hue
|
|
It's been a basement of a year
|
And all I want is for you to disappear
|
|
But oh, woe you caught my eye
|
And I thought that I'd give you a try
|
But you're nothing like the way you looked
|
In all those famous songs and books
|
|
And now I see how you snuff the light
|
And it's so confounding trying to cut you down
|
Trying to find a place to begin
|
|
Oh, woe please hear this plea
|
To walk away and leave me be
|
I've weathered more than I can take
|
Of your ever-present lonely ache
|
|

Oh, Woe
