• You laugh while you choke
  On your coffee and smoke
  And it's time to tell you the tale

  Of the time that I broke myself
  Bleeding alone
  In the street that I knew too well

  All our accidents pay off
  In some destined way
  I'm ready to cash it all in
  'Cause this bony clutz
  Lined with cigarette butts
  Has found home drinking cheap wine and gin

  They say Mary never
  Gave birth in December
  Some lies will forever be told
  Some say I wasn't
  A proper husband
  Some say that I got too old

  Looking at you
  And your eyes filled with dew
  I think they might've been right
  No man should lead
  His girl to believe
  That everything's going alright
  
  *This started out as wanting to be a song about an easy love. It ended up being about suicide. Funny how that works out.
