lyrics

It’s the love that can’t be real

It’s the rod that spins my wheel

Send me sailin’ down the road

Break my heart and crush my bones

It drives me far away from everyone I know

The tank is empty and I’m alone

It’s the love that wants me dead

It’s the hammer in my head

They try to hang me out to dry

They don’t bother askin’ why

And when the time the time is right

I’ll stand straight up and lie

Cause I’ve been thirsty all this time

Feel the breath of my regret

Warm and heavy on my neck

It whispers poison in my mind

While I lay shakin’ soaked in sweat

It’s come a callin’

To make me testify

And pull the marker on my debt

Count the weeks behind my door

Chasin’ shadows ‘cross the floor

Every moment’s like the last

I can’t tell when one has passed

And every night I laugh myself to sleep

Had to lock me up to set me free
