Emily



Woke up to find I lost my mind Lost heart, lost nerve I lost my favourite word - Emily I take my cigarettes I give 'em a smoke Oh god My heart feels froze I've lost something it seems I've misplaced my favourite thing - Emily Where does love go If it can't find a home One moment here then gone With no forwarding address Love no longer has a house Or residence in flesh Take the keys I get in the car To out run this man I'd have to go real far Where mercy wears lace And bottles are thieves Which of these took you from me? Emily I face myself But there's this draft inside Parts of me drowned In perpetual tide I wanna call names I wanna throw things around But no bar can buy Forgiveness another round for Emily I go to the bedroom Turn on the light It's like an empty altar No angel in sight religion with no temple No place to take my worship to No god for my eyes to see No fruit to lay at the feet of Emily Gone Gone
