Andy Hull - Blame lyrics

[Verse 1: Andy Hull] I know you must know it now My organs have stoned My fingers are numb around your warm, pulsing throat And I whisper, "my wife" She opens her pale eyes She smiled, so I smiled, and I got what I deserve This house was my flowered heart, my petals have fallen Do you love him? Tell me now or I'll show you my scars And you will bow, boldly, and tell me you're sorry But you're hardly moving Wake up and give me what I know I deserve [Verse 2] The farmer's wife heard it from the street down below And later fully recalled each harrowing note And she will cry, "Holy Spirit has cursed me For this, my ending sooner than I deserve" The children weren't lucky to have only used ears As I stood on top of him looking down I felt the fear in their skin They pled, "Father, did you k** our leader? Our rock and great teacher, what did he deserve?" And I replied, "No, k**ed my leeches, and the wound that has freed us And I hope you can see it for what I deserve." [Verse 3] The judge would ask why, again, was it him and not her The only response I could think was "to settle my nerves" And try k**ing my leeches, for s**ing me speechless Abandoning secrets and trust all the same So I deserve what I deserve I deserve what I deserve
