Call this on my awful luck
Skies they opened wide for us
Oh, what a heavy rain it was that covered all of you
The wind has changed, my boy
I never knew a voice like yours
But i know just what good it was, that lie you hold on to

But to call those shadows coming after you 
Go on, go on, I couldn't bear to lose 
Go on, go on, I couldn't stand to 
They begged you for your awful words
So let them know the burden of your blues

It could've been the one you loved
The visions of the things I'd done
Well, I wouldn't be the only one if you'd only told the truth
While they chased you down that night
I was pulling feathers from your lies
Oh, I swear I saw it in your eyes, you never told it true

But to call those shadows coming after you 
Go on, go on, I couldn't beg you to
Go on, go on, I couldn't stand to lose 
They begged you for your awful words
So let them know the burden of your blues

Oh to call those shadows coming after you 
Go on, go on, I couldn't beg you to 
Go on, go on, I couldn't stand to lose 
They begged you for your awful words
So let them know the burden of your blues
