By the Blues

She knew the second that she hit the floor

She broke a bone or two

And no-one was around to comfort

Then she caught herself thinking

Your lying is the only thing I like about you

Cause everytime you crawl back up

You try to make a better you

Believe you're done this time

It's a huffin' and a puffin'

Until your head is full of nothing

And you still get torn to pieces

By the blues

Awkward feeling

Like a dog down kneeling

Won't you throw me a bone

For good old times

Caress me faithfully

Lies keep on calling for a big commotion

Devolutionary mad machine

You know you need

To reset your rushed equation

Lies

Even those you know you fail to follow

Make a temporarily bright tomorrow

Forevermore

You count the countless hours

As they grind

She waited seven long seconds

Door was kicked in

And a shadow came across the floor

Up the wall

Across the ceiling

Dying is a lonely thing

Although you want to

Suddenly there's no way back you know

And you're up against the murky undertow

It's the stuffin' in the coffin

It'll free you from the nothing

But you still get torn to pieces

By the blues
