As Cities Burn Follow
The Widow lyrics
Dead man were you ever alive or was I just a seed
Buried deep inside some woman you wed?
Right before you crawled out of her bed
And crept down the hall.
did you think of me?
Did you even for a second hesitate in the doorway?
Its just something that I d like to know
Though I d still love you if you told me, that you just walked away
My God, what a world you love.
Men bury their sons
And without thought
Just walk away
And my mother s heart breaks like the water inside of her
And my mother s heart breaks like the water inside of her
Dead man is it being high that makes you alive?
It makes you leave behind three boys and a wife in 89
And as the track marks inched their way up your arms
My mother taught my brothers and I not to call you daddy,
But to call you father.
And I believe there is something here to be learned of grace?
'Cause I can't help but love you,
No I can't help but love you,
Even with a heart that breaks
like the promises that you made (x3)
