Killer

(album: Natural Killer - 2022)

I'm just a boy
Crying for his father
Reaching for his brother
Come help me now

I'm just a name
Written on a gravestone
Hoping that my new home's a better place
I'm just a drunk
Sipping on a black powder barrel
My melody's the lead between my teeth

I'm all alone
Waiting for the day my heart is sick of
The cold steel of that trigger, I

I need your love
I need your love
Without it, I
Without it, I
I need your love
Oh, I need your love
Without it, I
Without it, I

I'm just a kid
Folding paper airplanes
Hoping they can take me
Somewhere far away

I'm just a breath
Spoken for a moment
Hoping I can hold it
For another day

I'm just a song
Trying to find my rhythm
My tempo keeps on slipping
Then I fade away

I'm just a man
Waiting for the moment
That heaven's gates are open
And I feel the weight

I need your love
I need your love
Without it, I
Without it, I
I need your love
Oh, I need your love
Without it, I
Without it, I

I need your love
I need your love
Without it, I
Without it, I
I need your love
Oh, I need your love
Without it, I
Without it, I

I'm just a killer
A natural sinner
And I'm feeling so cold
I never meant to hurt you
Never meant to lose you
Please stay close

Oh, can you hear me?
Oh, can you see me?
Could you lift my soul
Out of the fire?
Please, lift me higher
I'm reaching
I'm reaching

I need your love
I need your love
Without it, I
Without it, I
I need your love
I need your love
Without it, I

I need your love
I need your love
Without it, I
Without it, I
I need your love
I need your love
Without it, I
Without it, I
