Crooked Fingers Follow

they say the Devil never cries
but baby
on the sad day we said goodbye
my baby

red tears flowed down the mountainside
black dust filled up the starry sky
fire turned to smoke so fast

if we all say we want to be free
why's a dead love's so hard to let be
when there's no use in saving
a dead love that's fading
a dead love that's meant to be done

Kerry, don't cry
I'm gonna disappear
and take this sorrow far away
so you can live your life

no need to ride
through salt tracks and and sad tears
there's beauty in an ugly thing
redemption in demise

we kept each other's lonely hearts
from breaking
you and your closed-eyed played guitar
but baby

those songs I played for you are done
sad songs should never last too long
hearts turn from red to black

and we all think we want to be free
though a dead love's so hard to let be
when there's no use in saving
a dead love that's fading
a dead love that's meant to be done

Kerry, don't cry
I'm gonna disappear
and take these sad songs far away
so you can live your life

no need to ride
through salt tracks and and sad tears
there's beauty in an ugly thing
redemption in demise
