La Dispute - Last Blues For Bloody Knuckles Lyrics
My precious wife, I am in shamblesI am crumbling, I amWas it something I didBid the tide to climb so high that it ripped our shore upI can fix it, I swearIf you trust meI am old and I am rusting but I careI careMy precious wife, we made a promisePledged our flesh to be oneHow can you doubt a love that stood so proud as we raised our childrenI believe in it stillIt has faltered and it has fadedBut I know it's thereHow'd it changeThe way you thought of meHow strange to think we once were loversNow we've wrapped the past up in broken glassAnd when you speak my name you shudderOh precious wife, believe I'll save thisI'll revive it, I willWe've built a family from this marriageWhy would you tear it apartOh speak now, preciousYour silence screamsYou're giving in to failureHear me, the promise that you made was meant to live foreverUntil our deathbed, you're not allowed to change your mindWas there nothing in that promiseAre you listening to meOh husband, I could not control itHusband, I could not abstainOne cannot stop the wind from blowingNor refuse the falling rainLove stirred up a storm inside meWrapped it's arms around my waistI failed you dear, I'm sorry, oh I'm sorryThere was nothing I could doNo, there was nothing I couldSure as the rain will fallSome love just fails without reasonThere is nothing you can doThere is nothing you can doThere is nothing you can doThere is nothing you can do
