Excuse (feat. Dolly Rose)

There's no more leaves in this tree
There's no more hurt in this heart
I try and see it your way
But we're miles apart

There's nothing soft in your gaze
A flower fed on wine
It's become a family favorite
And I don't put up a fight

There's no more hope in this well
I'm tired of pulling light from the dark
I could watch the blood pool in the wound
But I won't

Always the excuse
Never quite on time
I could write it down
But it's hard to find

Always an excuse
Misbegotten lines
I could pack it up
And leave tonight

I'm tired of putting this together
A puzzle without the lines
I could really use a picture
What's in your mind

I cleaned this room
About a thousand times
Watch the blood pool in the wound
Every night

Always the excuse
Never quite on time
(Never needed your time)
I could write it down
But it's hard to find

Always an excuse
Misbegotten lines
(Never needed your lines)
I could pack it up
And leave tonight

Always the excuse
Never quite on time
(Never needed your time)
I could write it down
But it's hard to find

Always an excuse
Misbegotten lines
(Never needed your lines)
I could pack it up
And leave tonight
