|
Born on a tear |
|
That seeps from the dagger shaped hole in your heart |
|
Wounds that run deep |
|
Well I'll try to patch them as best as I can |
|
If the sun melts the black of the street |
|
And the long road home sticks to your feet |
|
When the music that frees you has all but been used up |
|
Then I'll sing the last song for you |
|
I hate to see your heart breaking |
|
I'll hold it safe in my hands |
|
I don't know if my words can bind it together |
|
But that's all I know how to do |
|
So I'll sing the last song for you |
|
I ain't got much |
|
That I can give you, to keep you afloat |
|
Mumbled comforts |
|
Are no use for wrestling demons, I know |
|
But a lopsided smile and a lovesick recital |
|
Might loosen the burden for now |
|
The penultimate beat of the drum |
|
As the second to last chord is strummed |
|
When all other words have already been heard |
|
I'll sing the last song for you |
|
I'll sing the last song for you |
|
I'll sing the last song for you |
|
I'll sing the last song for you |
