lyrics

I slipped out my bones and left you my shell
to beat as you please and curse me to hell.
I sailed away with my skin on the closest rail.

My shirt dried my tears on the hard ride home.
I still can't figure where right went wrong.
A testament of my grief now festers in a song.

But hey, if it helps you in the long run;
woman, if it eases your mind to blame someone,
I'll tell you right now that a bayonet lasts longer than a gun.

Your misguided frustration left me in a slump.
I hope and prayed with good faith that your morning would come
but I'll tell you right now that a bayonet last longer than a gun.

(Lyrics 2016 © Dirty Metal Lefty)
