The Mighty Mistress

Your man
Was down
He came
Along
And then he came along a little more often
He said he's sure he's over you
He started to moan while singing that song
Where he escaped jail
He was deaf
Was blinded
I got the pieces
He was mine

All I hope was that he could spend the night
That he could stay for breakfast once
Maybe he'd stop shaking when over
So we could have one morning after
Without your face over my bed

Then he came a little closer
Then he stopped being a loner
Then he could break done the bars
The bars you built for him so far
Come on!

The man was broken
Couldn't hear what I say
When all I tried was to fix him someday
All I got was a weird broken boy
That turned against me all the bad that you've done
Cause you nailed
Him down
Throat cut
Hands down

All I hoped was that the guy would man up
And face the fact that we're both gone
Cause even though you broke him first
The man still wants to play along
Now it's my face over your bed
Now it's my face over your bed
