Jody |
| You give us bread, you keep us warm |
| What I do for you in turn |
| I leave you with this memory stained |
| Between the sheets, under the rain |
| Your face is pale, your lips are red |
| Your eyes are dark, you might be dead |
| But I will hold you even then |
| Until you breathe and I am fed |
| Jodi, my dear |
| I’m sorry but I must disappear |
| I leave you with a song and a tear |
| Just please don’t wash away |
| This is my crutch |
| You had me at the face and the touch |
| But I can only give you so much |
| Before it goes away |
| You could be my end |
| You could be my end |
| We can do this on our own |
| We can do this on our own |
| We can do this on our own |
| We can do this on our own |
| But you’re still telling me |
| What I want, what I need |
| Till I can’t even be |
| Here on my own |
| And in the dark and on the floor |
| The bottle caps, well they just pour |
| And you can tell I want you more |
| Beyond the few, beyond the storm |
| But this won’t stay, yeah I confess |
| That I am not what you have guessed |
| I’m just a whore and nothing less |
| And I won’t stop until I rest |
| Roll into town with thunder |
| On our backs, heads are proud |
| We wander through your gates and your crowd |
| To ponder what we’ll take |
| And though you are far |
| I keep you in a place in my heart |
| And never let the beast tear apart |
| What happened there in May |
| You could be my end |
| You could be my end |
| We can do this on our own |
| We can do this on our own |
| We can do this on our own |
| We can do this on our own |
| But you’re still telling me |
| What I want, what I need |
| Till I can’t even be |
| Here on my own |
