China Drum Foxhole Lyrics

Foxhole Lyrics

I had a dream last night, I remember I had a daughter

But I was scared to leave you alone all day with her

I know what you're thinking, it's a bit too harsh to come from me

How could anyone have that problem with someone like you

I'm sorry did you think I liked you?



How are you feeling?

Does it make your spine curl up with shame

To think that we thought of you as a person not to blame

But now it's plain to see all those fists you gave behind closed doors

We're no longer private secrets, when you boasted of your thoughts

Was she thankful for that day?



He was being cruel to be unkind

Now the stains have washed away, he's got nothing bad left to say

That doesn't mean that I would like him now

He'd be stupid to think he'd get away with what had scarred someone so deep
inside



So nobody's caring

So when was the last time that affected him

He hasn't got a constructive thought inside his head

But still he keeps on digging, but the only way he's digging is down

So now are you happy in your new foxhole?

Are you thankful for this day?



He was being cruel to be unkind

Now the stains have washed away, he's got nothing bad left to say

That doesn't mean that I would like him now

He'd be stupid to think he'd get away with what had scarred someone so deep
inside



Did you think you were safe dug in your new foxhole?

I'll be thankful for that day

We never imagined he could be that way

Our first impressions had no trace



He was being cruel to be unkind

He never thought that he would look behind

Now the stains are here to stay

They're never gonna be washed away

'Cause he was being cruel to be unkind



Did you think you were safe dug in your new foxhole?

I'll be thankful for that day

We never imagined he could be that way

Our first impressions had no trace



This is just a feeling, correct me if I'm wrong

But did he have to walk away from the crimes that stained him?

Now he'll have to wait, like on an empty station

Maybe change his name or find a new vocation

So nobody's caring, when was the last time that affected him?

He hasn't got a constructive thought inside his head

But still he keeps on digging, he says he's sorry, it'll never happen again

Are you happy stuck indside your old foxhole



Are you happy in your old foxhole?

Are you happy in your old style mould?

Are you happy in your new foxhole?
