When you last left me my blood was in a jar And you kept it on your mantlepiece I couldn’t count on anyone to stand there behind me And keep the dogs from dragging me off with them
While I slept, you crept in and pulled the rug right out from under me In the rain you stole away and took the parts that kept me functioning
Now my heart will be blacker than your eyes when I’m through with you
And I said: \"This life ain’t no love song\" while I marched on blindly And my knuckles dragged across the walls And the birds up there mock me and the scenery’s turned wicked And your name is trapped beneath my tongue
All of the roads are one now, each choice is the same All the roads, they are one now, each choice is the same I won’t show my hands now, I know this ain’t a game All the roads, they are one now, each choice is…
Take a step, take another step, take another step not a care for where they fall You burned me, yeah, you’ve burned me, yeah, you’ve burned me now one too many times My thoughts are the cold kind I got storm clouds that are brewing behind my eyes
And my heart will be blacker than your eyes when I’m through with you
