Lyrics
Try as he could
words wouldn't come
Hit where he stood
he felt so numb
Shot in the chest
clean through the heart
He gave his best
she played the part
It couldn't last
so hard he tried
to forget the past
He knew she lied
There he stands
hurt to the bone
desperate man
heart open and prone
She'd cast a curse
scorched his soul
Third degree burns
she'd lost control
Lonely dark nights
sadness will call
in neon lights
his tears will fall
False sense of hope
was all he'd had
it's all she wrote
for he's so sad
On the last day
written in stone
He'll find his way
one heart alone
