By the Blues

She knew the second that she hit the floor She broke a bone or two And no one was around to comfort Then she caught herself thinking Your lying is the only thing I like about you Cause everytime you crawl back up You try to make it better You believe you've done this time It's a huffin' and a puffin' Till your head is full of nothing And you still get torn to pieves By the blues Awkward feeling Like a dog down kneeling Won't you throw me a bone For good old times caress me faithfully Lies keep on calling for a big commotion Devolutionary mad machine You know you need To reset your rushed equation Lies Even those you know you fail to follow Make a temporarily bright tomorrow Forevermore You count the countless hours As they grind Shw waited seven long seconds Door was kicked in And a shadow came across the floor Up the wall across the celling Dying is a lonely thing although you want to Suddenly there's no way back you know And you're up against the murky undertow It's the stuffin' in the coffin It'll free you from the nothing But you still get torn to pieces By the blues Awkward feeling Like a dog down kneeling Won't you throw me a bone For good old times caress me faithfully Lies keep on calling for a big commotion Devolutionary mad machine You know you need To reset your rushed equation Lies Even those you know you fail to follow Make a temporarily bright tomorrow Forevermore You count the countless hours As they grind
