Stray Paper

You better never tell nobody but God

All the things I've seen

From high above this haunted city

Under elected thrones of thieves

Where mighty men lay down their hearts

In the service of their queens

And gave their bodies to be burned

Like I did before, your feet

Like she always tried for me

Like now, she does for me

And underneath the tyranny of August and her sons

Who sent fire from their fingertips

In the holy vow of a teenage kiss

Now we're much too old for this

And I won't feel those kinds of things

Don't you cry for me

I used to feel everything

Oh, but love (run, run, run, run, run, run)

Oh, but love (run, run, run, run, run, run)

Oh, but love (love, love, love becomes)

Oh, but love (love, love, love becomes)

Love, love, love becomes (run, run, run, run, run, run)

Love, love, love becomes (run, run, run, run, run, run)

And all my love becomes (becomes)

And all my love becomes (becomes)

Became blood on stray paper (my love, my love)

Became blood on stray paper (becomes)

Became blood on stray paper (becomes)

Became blood on stray paper (becomes)

Became blood on stray paper

Became blood on stray paper
