The Widow-As Cities Burn

dead man were you ever alive or was I just a seed buried deep inside some woman you wed? right before you crawled out of her bed and crept down the hall. did you think of me? Did you even for a second hesitate in the doorway? Its just something that I'd like to know Though I'd still love you if you told me, that you just walked away My God, what a world you love. Men burry their sons And without thought Just walk away And my mother's heart breaks like the water inside of her Dead man is it being high that makes you alive, It makes you leave behind three boys and a wife in â'89 And as the track marks inched their way up your arms My mother taught my brothers and I not to call you daddy, But to call you father. And I believe there is something here to be learned of grace? 'cause i can't help but love you No I can't help but love you even with a heart that breaks like The promises that you made, like the promises that you made. â'cause I can't help but love you My God, what a world you love.
