She Said Sorry

Like a madman I still run

From the warlord and her gun

But I can't hold or shun such feelings

Like I'm Aphrodites son

I'm so weakend I know that

But I'm in deep if I go back

She sat and stared at bad things happening

While I lay weepin' on the mat

She said she wanted off the tracks

But how the hell would I know that

She had her paints and poems packed

I knew she'd turned my mornings black

And Kythira sends the doves

They scream cross-eyed from above

I give her just the slightest shove

But she says sorry I'm in love

And you can't draw blood from a wall

But you can fool yourself to thinking

That there's sorrow in her at all

And if the world is just a stage

Then show me to the part I play

And have some mercy on the way

My eyes are twisted in their vision

And all I ever see is grey

Yeah the night and daytime play

I was knee-deep in the rainfall

But I stayed there anyway

And Kythiras hands were torn

Between the petals and the fawn

On the rows I left alone

And the redness was gone

All the singing of a song

She told me that it all goes on

That I was wrong and I felt wrong

And it was just another day

To see the nights and daytime play

I was knee-deep in disaster

But I stayed there anyway

On the doorstep I still stand

While she cups raindrops in her hands

And it's all more than I can stand

I was dreaming of disaster

And she lost my elegance

In the blueness of the bland

Expands along with my advances

That I barely understand

In this room the curtains drawn

To hide the blood behind the door

And I can't see her anymore

She said she'd seen it all before

And Kythira sends the doves

They scream cross-eyed from above

I cried enough is enough!

But she said sorry I'm in love
