Of Lovers and Liars

My father my mother if this is the last you hear of me It's not for lack of covering my tracks I am leaving For where sky meets sea Please, do not fear for me Like a furnace fueled by flame the feeling was festering A sense of shame and my wanting ways got the best of me So bloody my lips, blacken my eyes Show me your fists, teach me to fight There is nothing that I would not do There is nothing that I would not do To prove myself To prove my love for you Searching for answers in the bottom of a glass to questions I'm too scared to ask In the pocket of my coat I carry my flask to inspire the courage I lack I want to tell you I love you, but I don't know how I want to love you, but I don't know how When, All my love is a lie All my love is a lie And silence the truth's disguise Even the sunset will someday rise You will know love You will know patience with time Feel it in my bones Voices from below Saying if you love her, let her go Feel it in my bones Voices from below Saying if you love her, let her go But I was born a stubborn soul My vices are my own My brother my sister if this is the last that you hear of me It's not for lack of love or the feeling wearing weary Please, do not fear for me See I have been patient most my life See I have been patient most my life And today may be the day I die Today may be the day I die
