lyrics

I can be a dark rain cloud
and hover over your head,
or a brightly shining wedding gown
and haunt your nights in bed
slip me in your suitcase,
handcuffed tightly to your wrist
you’re gonna need me when you leave this placeto help ya handle this
cause you’re heart has no compass
and you’re friends they’re all broke
spent all your compassion
to buy me for a joke
set the bottle on the floor
let the gun from your hand
leave em lay in the graveyard
leave em drift in the sand
im your man
im your man
then the candle flame sputters
in your spray painted hands
and you quote your mother and mutter
well life, its just no marching band
but when they see us come in
they will fall to the deck
and they’ll always be running
long as you got me hanging round your neck
let me be your compass
let me be your cross
let me be compassion
let me be lost
set the bottle on the floor
let the gun from your hand
leave em lay in the graveyard
leave em drift in the sand
im your man
im your man
