We were arrested on Aberdeen |
|
With empty hands and mouths to feed |
|
So I put my hands up and begged release |
|
And now Julia it seems that our honesty was brief |
|
|
|
We were lost when we left our homes |
|
We were high again and we went out to score |
|
I soon found myself at your brother's door |
|
And I'd pondered all the rent |
|
Well I ain't been back there since |
|
|
|
I woke up on my hands and knees |
|
The night was cold and I began to see |
|
That I'd pinned myself to another name that had sold me out before |
|
And had never shown remorse |
|
|
|
So many years now I've been bought and sold |
|
I told myself I'd take the higher road |
|
So I dressed myself in your brother's clothes |
|
And I walked across his hands |
|
I left nothing up to chance |
