Aaron Orr - Nothing After All Lyrics

And as the glass filled the alley
I watched you fade away
The scratches come and go
But, f*ck, the scars they stay

You've got nothing in your bones
And nothing in you veins
Someday your scarlet lipstick
Will eclipse the numbing gray

Remove these shackles
Remove these chains
Remove my temperance and
Remove the pain
Remove your nails and tell me
Someday you will fall
Cause honey, there ain't nothing waiting for us after all

You are the crux of my affliction
I'm the thorn between your toes
It was dying when I knew you
Didn't make it, I suppose
But I have washed my hands
I have washed another's feet
She sold me sweet forgiveness
But that shit wasn't free

Remove these shackles
Remove them please
Remove my pestilence and
Remove disease
Remove my longing for the one who never calls
Cause honey, there ain't nothing waiting for us after all
