Last Blues for Bloody Knuckles |
My precious wife, I am in shambles |
I am crumbling, I am |
Was it something I did |
Bid the tide to climb so high that it ripped our shore up |
I can fix it, I swear |
If you trust me |
I am old and I am rusting but I care |
I care |
My precious wife, we made a promise |
Pledged our flesh to be one |
How can you doubt a love that stood so proud as we raised our children |
I believe in it still |
It has faltered and it has faded |
But I know it’s there |
It’s there |
And how’d it change |
The way you thought of me |
How strange to think we once were lovers |
Now we’ve wrapped the past up in broken glass |
And when you speak my name you shudder |
My precious wife, believe I’ll save this |
I’ll revive it, I will |
We’ve built a family from this marriage |
Why would you tear it apart |
Speak now, precious |
Your silence screams |
You’re giving in to your failure |
Hear me, the promise that you made was meant to keep forever |
Until we die, you’re not allowed to change your mind |
Oh husband, I could not control |
Husband, I could not abstain |
One cannot stop the wind from blowing |
Nor refuse the falling rain |
Love stirred up a storm inside me |
Wrapped its arms around my waist |
I failed you dear, I’m sorry, oh I’m sorry |
But there was nothing I could do |
No, there was nothing I could do |
Sure as the rain will fall |
Some love just fails |
There was nothing I could do |
There was nothing I could do |
There was nothing I could do |
There was nothing I could do |
