Слова
She said, "Does anyone even love me, just for who I am?
It sucks the life right out of me when I have to pretend"
And I'd never seen fear before like I saw in her eyes
As she chased her fifth of whiskey down
With a twist off bottle of wine
Her hands had the shakes and were a little rough from the farm
But I'd have bet a month of paychecks that the other sides were warm
I didn't have the words for her, just spitting in an empty can
But I could feel each one she said sometimes
You've got to hurt to understand
I recall the scent of the summer rain on that August night we met
The hair she left on my pillowcase and the smoke from her cigarette
Said she was only seeking virtue, somewhere souls and hearts are saved
But an all night drive to Tennessee didn't bring her what she craved
I asked, "Is it Jesus that you seek, kneeling on that cold tile floor
Searching for your slice of heaven you won't find at the dollar store"
She said, "This angel on my shoulder is trying to have her say,
But it's the devil on my tongue that always gets his way."
And the willows ain't the only things weeping
And the vultures ain't dead they're just sleeping
When she came undone it all poured out in a torrent and a rhyme
Nothing left to spend but the time
She said, "Don't you get too comfortable,
We don't have that kind of time.
Pretty soon you'll go your way, and I'll go mine."
I guess no one ever told her to come in from the rain
Broken bones and broken hearts, they don't heal the same
She swallowed all your pride, washed it down with pills,
A chalk outline around her and a prophecy self-fulfilled"
She smirked and sank into the seat of her faded red Pontiac
Said, "It took three years to change me, it'll take twice that
To change me back."
And the willows ain't the only things weeping
And the vultures ain't dead they're just sleeping
When she came undone it all poured out in a torrent and a rhyme
Nothing left to spend but the time
