Only You

Walk the way your mother taught you to

Put your spurs on when you go outside

Trust in god but don't forget you lied

At your first confession

Beware the hides that hang upon your wall

Take the time to catch up on the news

Catch the wind, don't wait for him to call

This was your first concession

you alone in your parade

you alone in your parade

you alone in your parade

only you

Curse the bone that grows within your hand

He'll pluck your heart and pop it in his mouth

Don't watch for signs you'll never understand

This is his obsession

Black and blue he paints your canvas red

Then takes you out and buys you something nice

Afterwards he'll tie you down in bed

This is his oppression

you alone in your parade

you alone in your parade

you alone in your parade

only you
