|
I earned my purple heart |
|
At the foot of her command |
|
Before I had a chance to take a stand |
|
I quit my ditch and ran |
|
To the furthest city |
|
Disinfected the wounds with alcohol |
|
I thought it would go away |
|
If I didn't stay |
|
But it burns like an eternal napalm fire |
|
In every crowded place |
|
In every song we play |
|
There is always a darken echo of a voice |
|
I thought it would go away |
|
If I didn't stay there |
|
But it burns like an eternal napalm fire |
|
Deep within me in ocean sleep |
|
With her arms securely rapped around me |
|
We fall with nowhere to land |
|
Cause our bruise be stolen |
|
Hearts stand gloaming |
|
My purple heart |
|
We went and came again |
|
Road's long when we carpet it |
|
Like a flake of snow she melted in my hand |
