THE BEAST

From the album "Hellbound for Bastard Town" released October 22, 2020. Available for purchase here: https://dieselboots.bandcamp.com/ LYRICS: Took down all your pictures Boxed up all the frames Told your momma I’m sorry And promised her I could change This half-empty apartment Ain’t worth the controlled rent Cuz my vacant heart ain’t beat since the day you left. What you said as you walked away Never been hurt, like the way I was that day I’ve never felt so uneasy Never felt so alone I drag each step like a bag of broken bones. A kiss in the morning, as I left for work Would get me through the day But my days have been long and my nights so dark Ever since you went away The phone rings my heart skips a beat But it’s just a man collecting a bill If only it’d been your voice, I’d be breathing still What you said as you breached that door Ripped me to shreds, my heart left on the floor I’ve never felt so uneasy Never felt so alone I drag each step like a bag of broken bones. At the end of the I day, I kneel and pray That someday you’ll return So I can prove to that I’m better man that lessons I have learned But my prayers the go unanswered As time goes rushing past Don’t know how I keep going, Don’t how long I’ll last. What you said as you broke my heart Ring tossed in the garbage Marriage license ripped apart I’ve never felt so uneasy Never felt so alone I drag each step like a bag of broken bones.
