Drove past your house last night
Something in my mind was just not right (2X)
Romeo in a blood opera
I’m just trying to get through to tonight

Feel like I’m in prison
Or buried deep in some dark mine (2 x)
Don’t matter what the judge says
I’m already doing my long, long time

If I can’t stay with you
I don’t feel nothin’….. just pain (2X)
The doctors say I feel too much
Let them drag around this chain

Took a readin’ from the stars
And I found out where I stand (2x)
I made my mind up what to do
When you found another man

Took a silver handled dagger
Buried it deep inside our clothes (2x)
I can see our blood wash in the ground
Drink our red heart’s river flow

Drove past your house last night
Something in my mind was just not right (2x)
Poor boy in a soap opera
I’m just trying to get through to tonight
