Violent Man Lovesong - GoodBooks

You paint a lonely mood

But if I may say so I saw this one coming

From miles ago

And as the sirens sing

I think it’s fair to say you’re hurting

But I’m hurting too

As for me, I won’t let you down

I won’t turf you out, I will do you proud

I earn a decent wage

I could control my rage when fighting

I will win for you

And I could drive you around

And I could hold back your hair while you were

Sick on my new suede shoes

As for me, I won’t let you down

I won’t turf you out, I will do you proud

I’ve been telling stories, stories about you

I’ve been forging memories, the way that dictators do

The way you taught me to

I have a picture of you

Within a frame of gold leaf but the glass is gone

I threw it to the floor

That time when we were fighting

But you weren’t there

As for you, I won’t let you go

I will keep you close

I will make you see
