David Wilcox Oil Talking to Ya lyrics

There will be beautiful lives lived out full and long Long after the transition, when the oil is gone There will be gardens green, there will be houses warm Good livelihoods providing for the hearth and home (Pre-Chorus) So when depression seeps Through the cracks of grief Hopelessness will speak From the dark and deep (Verse) There will be kitchens full and parties loud Inviting conversations with the neighbor crowd There will be bright ideas, ways to get things done Good time to raise a family and time for fun (Pre-Chorus) So when depression seeps Through the cracks of grief Hopelessness will speak From the dark and deep (Chorus) That's just the oil talking to ya It says you got no choice That's just the oil talking to ya But there's a brighter voice (Instrumental break) (Pre-Chorus) When depression seeps Through the cracks of grief Hopelessness will speak From the dark and deep (Interlude) When it's a pride or manhood Start the next big war You feel a cruel commander Like you did before That's just the oil talking to ya So what ya whisperin' for? (Verse) Right now it's harder to hear over the Huxleyan toys Breaking down from the vibration of the engine noise But there's a world outside that we have still not seen Because we're busy being driven by the old machine We see the same old news upon the same old screen (Chorus) That's just the oil talking to ya It says you got no choice That's just the oil talking to ya But there's a brighter voice
