She swore out the lights,
when she said that she was only in it for the rain.
She made off her bed,
a nightmare to lead
just in case it became.
Just in case….

Here's the first of many songs you wanted me to write.
Just for you,
I hope to god you like it
It's as pretty as it is cruel.
It's as pretty as it is cruel.

She swore out the lights,
when she damned herself to sleep.
Her thirteenth finger…
My whiskey drink.
She wept at the scene,
as the ambulance drove off.
Come circumferent,
come circumstance…

Here's the first of many songs you wanted me to write.
Just for you,
I hope to god you like it.
And it may seem pretty cruel,
but mercy is not my name.
And our kids,
I hope to god I counted them…
You're as pretty as you are cruel.
You're as pretty as you are cruel.
You're as pretty as you are cruel.

She swore out the lights,
when she said that she was only in it for the rain.
For the rain….
For the rain.
