Govt Mule - Wine And Blood lyrics

Desiree's in disarray waiting for her angels to come Where she used to feel the weight of a thousand lifetimes Now she just feels numb But there was a time when her beauty raised the eyebrows of the town Any man would gladly give up all he had just to take Desiree down She stares out the window at the world passing by She is caught beneath the wheel Too heavy to lift - she feels too weak to try People stare like strangers where once she might've asked them in To fill the void where her heart once was Now she just fills her glass again And again And she walks the floor less traveled Thinks of a sad melody Wine and blood don't mix like they used to Now they just make a memory Too many years trying to do the right thing for the wrong man Now the picture is clear She drinks and she cries and she hides from the past 'Cause the truth is more bitter than the tears All these half-truths and alibis help build a wall of denial She takes comfort in the night - darkness blocks the light From falling on her aging smile Grey befalls her halo where there once was a golden mane And her eyes don't shine like they used to Without the moon, the sun would be in vain So she walks the floor less traveled Thinks of a sad melody Wine and blood dont mix like they used to Now they just make a memory Too many years trying to the right thing for the wrong man Now the picture is clear She drinks and she cries and she hides from the past 'Cause the truth is more bitter than the tears She puts on h er make-up - though no one's seen her for days Her silence is a lonely cry She's trapped inside a maze Her tears have turned to honey, drawing the black flies of depression Desiree's in disarray waiting for her angels again
