Once she lay open like a road
|
Carbed apart the madness that I stumbled from
|
But she fell away
|
She fell away
|
Shed me like a skin
|
She fell away
|
Left me holding everything
|
|
Once the road lay open like a girl
|
And we drank and laughed and threw the bottle over
|
But she fell away
|
She fell away
|
I did not see the cracks form
|
As I knelt to pray
|
I did not see the crevice yawn, no
|
|
Sometimes
|
At night I feel the end it is at hand
|
My pistol going crazy in my hand
|
For she fell away
|
O she fell away
|
Walked me th the brink
|
The fell away
|
I did not see her fall
|
To better days
|
Sometimes I wonder was she ever there at all
|
She fell away
|
She fell away
|
She fell away
|
