On My Hands

Never got along with anyone
Long enough to get past argument one
She'd have a word to say when I got away
In time to tell the birds I'll meet on the way
Yes, on my way I would be
I love you if you make love to me
How will you go on when everyone is gone
I'm doing fine and I see a light on my line
How do you get by, You're living out a lie
Can't tell you now I got too much time on my hands
History should tell me how to be
Forty-five looks much like thirty-three
Never got straight on trying something new
So I go on and tell the tired story too
This is the way I will be
I love her while you make love to me
How will you go on when everyone is gone
I'm doing fine, don't try to pay me no mind
How do you get by, You're living out a lie
Can't tell you now I got too much blood on my hands
So don't give me your grief
Don't say I stole your heart
Don't speak to me again, I believe in easing the pain
Don't speak truth to me again
solo chorus
You'll have a word to say for our separate days
In time to tell the birds I'll meet on the way
And on their way they will be
Lover takes love and makes more than me, see?
How do you go on when everyone is gone
I'm doing fine shine a light in my eye
How will you get by, still living out a lie
Can't tell you how I got so much time on my hands
Can't tell you how I live myself, understand?
Can't find the truth we demand.
