[00:23.58]Broke into her house. Saw her sittin' there
[00:28.53]Drinking coke and whiskey in her bra and underwear
[00:33.59]Saw him in the kitchen, hangin' up the phone
[00:39.32]I asked him nicely please to pack his things and go
[00:43.49]He gave her a firm, reassuring look that said he wouldn't leave
[00:48.79]But I asked him one more time and this time pulled out my shiv
[00:54.45]I struck him in the back and I pulled it out slow
[00:59.74]And I watched him fall down
[01:01.55]And as the morning sun rose
[01:04.80]He looked at me and said:
[01:07.86]"You missed my heart
[01:09.76]You missed my heart
[01:12.82]You got me good. I knew you would
[01:18.26]But you missed my heart
[01:20.31]You missed my heart."
[01:23.06]Were his last words before he died
[01:28.35]Looking out the window, up at the blue sky
[01:36.20]Listening to her scream, listening to her cry
[01:41.09]A feeling of relief came over my soul
[01:46.02]I couldn't take it any longer and I lost control
[01:51.36]I chased her up the stairs
[01:55.57]And I pinned her to the ground
[01:57.16]And underneath her whimpering
[01:59.44]I could hear the sirens sound
[02:04.28]I rattled off a list of everything I missed
[02:09.44]Like going to the movies with her
[02:12.45]And the way she kissed me
[02:14.88]Driving into Wheeling and showing her off
[02:19.58]Backyard barbecues and reunions in the park
[02:24.70]I said I loved her skin and she started laughing
[02:29.67]And while I clenched down on her wrist
[02:32.78]She said "That's quite a list
[02:35.60]But there's one thing you missed
[02:38.80]You missed my heart, you missed my heart
[02:43.92]That's quite a list, but what you really missed
[02:49.15]You missed my heart, you missed my heart
[02:54.36]That's quite a list, but what you really missed
[03:02.16]Running through the parking lot
[03:04.40]Running through the fields
[03:07.16]Policemen on my back
[03:09.12]Something hit my skull and cracked
[03:11.99]They dragged me off to jail, set a million dollar bail
[03:16.97]Where I tried to tie a noose, but I failed and I broke loose
[03:22.45]Racing through the prison yard
[03:25.16]Shot down by a tower guard
[03:27.76]He got me in the shins
[03:30.10]And he got me in the arms
[03:32.77]They strapped me in the gurney
[03:34.89]Took me to the infirmary
[03:38.04]Where the priest read my last rites
[03:41.44]And just before, everything went dark
[03:46.13]I said:
[03:48.69]"He missed my heart, he missed my heart
[03:53.85]He got me good, I knew he would
[03:59.10]But he missed my heart, he missed my heart"
[04:04.52]And just before, everything went dark
[04:11.62]The most poetic dream came flowing like the sea
[04:16.92]Laying there my lifeblood draining out of me
[04:21.88]A childhood scene then, sky moon beams
[04:27.38]Fishing with my friends sitting in the wild lands
[04:32.55]Watching the Ohio river flow at night
[04:37.90]Waiting for the bullhead catfishes to bite
[04:42.47]Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyards
[04:53.38]Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyards
[05:03.59]Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyards
[05:14.02]Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyards
[05:24.64]Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyards
[05:29.75]
