I am the boy your mother wanted you to meet But I am 


broken and torn with heels at my feet


And with your purest light why don't you shine on me?


Well I should have been an angel. But I'm too dumb to speak.




                                          
Now as she gets nearer, the visions get clearer.


I'm kneeling, weeping. I will hold her dear.

                                                          
Oh, If your eyes water, you've got your favorite number to spin

       
     

                   
And oh,ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

              
what a crying 

                
shame, a crying shame

                 
What we became





Murdered my throat, screaming bloody all night
Hit him with a book and how he crumbles
Oh you should have seen the arches tumble
Their golden no more
Now I'm smiling in my blood

I'm caught in a whirlwind
I'm going to heaven
I'm standing on trial and it's painted on canvas
An eternal testament to how we are so animalistic

And oh, what a crying shame, what a crying shame
What we became

I bow my head in the morning light and say goodnight
I held her hand and I, I kissed her eyes
Stumbled down the stairs and hang my self on high
And I started for the town that i have a front yard
And died
