Almost Had Me

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You were my halogen, guiding me home

My only weapon when I was alone

You were a big city, one I got lost in

And when you spoke with me, I fell open

I fell open

But did you know that cost when you broke your promise?

(I wasn't prepared)

That when your bombs went off they would come down on us

I was a knife in a gunfight

And I fought so madly

You were a wolf in the daylight

And you almost had me

And you almost had me

I thought you were showing all your colors

But you were in sheep's clothing

A mind of another

Can a slave preach freedom?

Can a captive take hold of what they believe in?

But did you know that cost when you broke your promise?

(I wasn't prepared)

That when your bombs went off they would come down on us

I was a knife in a gunfight

And I fought so madly

You were a wolf in the daylight

And you almost had me

With a blindside

And it hurt so badly

You were a wolf in the daylight

And you almost had me

I guess I knew when your heart stop beating

I'd never let you sink your teeth in

I guess I knew when your heart stop beating

I'd never let you sink your teeth in

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh (you almost had me)

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh (and you almost had me)

I guess I know when your heart stop beating (oh-oh-oh)

And you almost had me

I guess I knew when your heart stop beating (oh-oh-oh)

I was a knife in a gunfight

And I fought so madly

You were a wolf in the daylight

And you almost had me
