Joseph Arthur - Blue Lips - Текст песни

I prayed to god from hell 
Run like a midnight bell 
Dancing naked in these streets 
Thought I was Jesus Christ 
As I dug out my eyes 
And threw them past the prison gates 

So I still can't explain 
What I had to do 
To try and make it 
Since your red lips turned blue 

Now I'm a hunted man 
Singing the song you sung 
Wearing the noose from which you hung 
I guess we lost the war 
The air I breathed before 
Only fill the dead man's lungs 

So I still can't explain 
What I had to do 
To try and make it 
Since your red lips turned blue 

The devil is the lord 
Of this confusing world 
Where all the wrong dreams come true 
I never needed light 
I never felt like I was right 
Did not deserve the love I knew 

So I still can't explain 
What I had to do 
To try and make it 
Since your red lips turned blue
