Other States - Make Amends Lyrics

Well its been breaking midnight
Maybe i should be getting off
And the calls that you make me
They said 'lover, that's enough'
But there's a tone in your voice
Something that churns to the core
And the bed you got waiting
Well it doesn't seem warm anymore

I'll lay on the line for you my darling
But you see i'm scared about coming home
Curtains closed, plates laid on the table
Where the meat is carved down to the bone

It was early morning
When i left you on your own
And you were looking better
Looking wiser, hanging on
Well i know there's been hard times
And there's no justice no cure
When your eyes look into mine
There is a sickness, for sure

I'll lay on the line for you my darling
But you see i'm scared about coming home
Curtains closed, plates down on the table
Where the meat is carved down to the bone
To the bone

Loose ends hang and haunt you
Cutlery is cleaned and laid new
Curtains closed you cannot pretend
Meat is carved to make amends

I'll lay on the line for you my darling
But you see i'm scared about coming home
Curtains closed plates laid on the table
Where the meat is carved down to the bone.
