And Every Night The Same

"Take your apologies,
And throw them in the fire,
You weren't so sorry
When you pulled the trigger:
You are a liar."

She'll fan the flames and sigh,
And prey that he appears,
And take the potion
But to dull the failing
that she fears.

And every night the same.

She drinks the night alone,
And feels the falling tears,
And lets the red breeze
blow until it's burning
In her ears:

"Take your apologies,
And throw them in the fire,
You weren't so sorry
When you pulled the trigger:
You are a liar."

And every night the same.
