Once my lover, now she's dressed up in gold
Silk and cedar, sleeping out in the cold
Got my badge, got my gun, got my anger
She didn't wanna sleep alone that night. (Who would say no? who would say no?)
I didn't answer when she called that night (Oh my god, twenty years old, twenty years old)
Now when I close my eyes I see her face. Cause the love you give is the love you take and the heart you hold is the one you break
It's my behavior that I abhor
I was her savior and she was my scapegoat
Ruby cumulous, In an alley alone
Dial the number, but there's nobody home
Got my foil, got my fire, got my sorrow
She didn't wanna sleep alone that night. (Who would say no? who would say no?)
I didn't answer when she called that night (Oh my god, twenty years old, twenty years old)
Now when I close my eyes I see her face. Cause the love you give is the love you take and the heart you hold is the one you break
It's my behavior that I abhor
I was her savior and she was my scapegoat
Like paper angels, strung in a row
Drunk with inertia, they never grow old
