Closer she smiled telling me not to worry
I said I didn't know and I don't now
But I won't let you fall if you come down
Oh she was waiting
On the wine dark sea with skinny lips of salt
Better to give to thee
Then to all the senators in the hall
And we oh oh oh for knowing all
That I never knew
Oh oh oh for knowing all
That I never knew

Well the suitors they're complaining it's a bitter taste of man
I seen them over explaining the roles in which they stand
But don't you hear them because they want you to
Don't you give them because they love you in all your splendor
You're breaking it on the floor

There's been a dead reckoning with the government
Though they seem to know their plan
They're drawing all their lots to see who's the better man
But don't you love them because they need you to
They wont give you unless they are better then you
So go on with your lover and leave it all alone

I seen the blood escaping man
But do not overcome him if you can
I seen the blood escaping man
But do not overcome him

In your hand that holds the paper that wouldn't let us out last night
What made you come back
Return at first light
Well she gave me, she gave me more then the night
And I fear for, I fear for my life
We got to go home now 'cause they are making it with your wife

I seen the Blood Escaping Man
But do not overcome him if you can
I seen the Blood Escaping Man
But do not overcome him in your hand that holds the path that leads you
Do not overcome your master plan
