Once my lover
Now she's dressed up in gold
Silk and cedar
Sleeping out in the cold
Got my badge, got my gun, got my anger
She didn't wanna sleep alone that night
Who would say no? who would say no?
I didn't answer when she called that night
Oh my god
Twenty years old, twenty years old
Now when I close my eyes I see her face
Cause the love you give is the love you take and
the heart you hold is the one you break
It's my behavior that I abhor
I was her savior and she was my scapegoat
Like paper angels, strung in a row
Drunk with inertia, they never grow old
Ruby cumulous
In an alley alone
Dial the number
But there's nobody home
Got my foil, got my fire, got my sorrow
It's my behavior that I abhor
I was her savior and she was my scapegoat
Like paper angels, strung in a row
Drunk with inertia, they never grow old
