We will never be together
Because I have studied the weather
And it doesn’t bode well for you 
I know the taste of hell too 
But I could never do what you did
Shake a knife and then hid 
Slink into the corner of some darkened hole
Like that is the place for your soul 
And I reside in the light
I kept trying to illuminate your night
And you resolutely proud 
Said it once out loud 
That you never want to see me again
And there’s only so much I will take from men
And an admission of defeat
Is the woman washing Jesus’ feet 
Like she is the downfall of man
And I know you’d take power any way you can
Simply because you’ve got none of your own 
Think you can invade my home 
And there will be no consequence
I smiled at you and then away I went 
And you won’t see me at your door
Not again, not anymore
You could write me a sonnet or a song
But it doesn’t change the way you do me wrong 
And the look of you in my living room 
Is preceded by the sound of doom 
And cashing out on the promise 
Is the part of me that keeps you honest
So go love your faithful bride
And forget that I am alive 
I’m not here to take you away
From a woman that would stay 
Through all your tripe 
I kiss your memory in the candlelight
