All is fair in the atrocities committed during love and war At least that is what I have learned from you When you have fallen for an angel with the mind of a ***** It's impossible to remain slick like silver and true When you told me you were going to go back home I never imagined home wasn't where we have always been Living between the birds and snakes we found a tome And it taught us how to love and decode what we've seen Drain your veins and take up a young cigarette The smoke won't help you get over it all Cover your eyes, ears, and mouth and forget The melancholy memories from a wistful fall Don't you remember anything at all from your innocent past? What was once loved in the light of youth can never last
