My Mary bought a gun with Her fathers violence She's sick of finding words From other peoples silence The pain won't ease in the air now Sick of the sin that sleeps in her bed now So whats it going to be girl? You could spend your life pretending That things are going to heal now With at least some sort of ending The blood won't wash out in water Thicker than rope you hang from the rafters Now I'm alone Here stands resounding silence After storms of anger The tide runs, red and greedy Peace is its pa**enger Sister your black God is calling Bleed the family tree in mourning Splash the tear that Breaks on falling Now I'm alone My sister Mary Why couldn't you talk to me
