Book of Ruth |
Poor little baby |
Blood on her hand |
She said she’s losing her mind |
She rolls her eyes |
And speaks in tongues |
Said it gets better with time |
She wraps her head in bandages |
To keep the words in her mouth |
She prayed for more |
Than what’s in store |
Then locked the door to her house |
Oh it’s me |
I’ve been dead for years |
Let me haunt you while I wake |
It’s not the life I chose to live |
But it’s one I’ll gladly take |
I never meant we were perfect |
Let me count the ways we hate |
Yes all I have to do is wait |
I guess all that I have to do is wait |
Inside this house |
The lights are dim |
We count the cracks in the paint |
I got a map she colored coastlines |
And all the people to save |
Out on the sidewalk |
Wrapped in a sheet |
She kissed the hands that she passed |
She made her likeness |
Out of paper |
And lit the end with a match |
Oh it’s me I’ve been dead for years |
Let me haunt you while I wake |
It’s not the life I chose to live |
But it’s one I’ll gladly take |
I never meant we were perfect |
Let me count the ways we hate |
I guess all that I have to do is wait |
Instrumental |
Poor little baby caught in a nightmare |
And she was losing her mind |
And on her deathbed |
With her last breath |
She said, «Well at least I tried» |
Oh it’s me I’ve been dead for years |
Let me haunt you while I wake |
It’s not the life I chose to live |
But it’s one I’ll gladly take |
I never meant we were perfect |
Let me count the ways we hate |
I guess all I that have to do is wait |
I guess all I have to do is wait |
