Joseph Arthur - Blue Lips lyrics

I prayed to god from hell Run like a midnight bell Dancing naked in these streets Thought I was jesus christ As I dug out my eyes And threw them past the prison gates So I still can't explain What I had to do To try and make it Since your red lips turned blue Now I'm a hunted man Sining the song you sung Wearing the noose from which you hung I guess we lost the war The air I breathed before Only fill the dead man's lungs So I still can't explain What I had to do To try and make it Since your red lips turned blue The devil is the lord Of this confusing world Where all the wrong dreams come true I never needed light I never felt like I was right Did not deserve the love i knew So I still can't explain What I had to do To try and make it Since your red lips turned blue
