Did you make a mistake telling me to go to hell
And now all you want to shout is that you wish me well
After all the evidence to the contrary
Now you hold vigils and pray to Mother Mary
But you don’t find any answers there
At least not the ones that make you care 
And I spilled truth like ink 
All over the kitchen sink 
And you balked at its black, viscous flavour 
And I looked at you as though you were my saviour 
But you only saw the war 
And you crucified me for 
What you sought to keep 
Now it haunts you in your sleep 
And you can’t get my voice out of your mind
It whispers to you as to what you’ve left behind
And your bed is warm 
But you look so forlorn 
At the shape that sleeps beside you in the sheets
And you wonder if two people ever meet 
On a level playing field 
And I feel you hate me so I yield 
To the tide of going away
It isn’t indifference that made me sway
And let the ribbon float into the air 
It’s because I loved the man that was there
