They say misery loves company
Well I suppose that's true
And all the stars laid out before me
Oh the things I wouldn't do
There's an angel in the corner
Playing forty-five with death
If he's against us, who'd be for us?
She left the jokers in the deck
Heart in the water
Blood in the fire
Back when I loved you
Fueled by desire
But in the end we're all surrounded
Now that the walls are caving in
Look at your secrets all consume you, babe
See how the devil plays to win
Did you listen to your mother?
Did she show you how to be?
Can she stand across the water?
Can she calm the stormy seas?
Have you ever crossed your borders?
Where the ocean meets the sky
Now and then, and in the evening
Is where a man might go to die
Heart in the water
Blood in the fire
Back when I loved you
Fueled by desire
But in the end we're all surrounded
Now that the walls are caving in
Look at your secrets all consume you, babe
See how the devil plays to win
Am I enough?
Or am I petrified still frozen to the stairs?
I should have told you how I loved you
I should have told you even though you didn't care
