Deathwish Blues

(album: Phototroph - 2022)

Been had, been took
All my hope gone, forlorn
She was a light burst through the storm
And I was home

Thought I knew 'bout love
Till that girl showed up
I didn't choose her
She didn't choose me
Something bigger
Chose us

She laid my heart down
On the floor
And walked away from it
And now it won't
Sing no more

Got me caving in
Got me caving in

Give my meat and bones
To thrill and caution thrown
She was a light burst through the storm
But now she's gone

Thought I knew 'bout love
Till she gave me up
Now I'm wild
Now I'm a fire
Now I'm dangerous

She laid my heart down
On the floor
And walked away from it
And now it won't
Sing no more

Got me caving in
Got me caving in

She took the only thing I had to lose
Now I'm stuck here singing Deathwish Blues
Got me caving in
Got me caving in
Got me caving in
