LA - Older lyrics

I've come here as a man in shambles Worn out from begging on my knees Please, I'm just trying to keep my family together Now when you saw your lover Wore a ring around her finger Why didn't you stop? I have half a mind to make you hurt To make you bleed, to make you suffer I swear, if you've touched her Oh heaven, forgive what I would do To you, you monster Think about your children They'll never believe what you've done Listen, I am begging you Back off Let me rebuild all the things that you shattered She meant it I swear that she meant it She whispered so often "Husband, I'll always be here with you" Always Always Always Always Always Always Always is valueless I wish I'd never heard her speak a word And I hope you see us Your wife and your children and I Buried in the wreckage of your crime While you're laying down your sins Softly leaning in to kiss your guilt goodnight She is mine, she is, she is mine You stole her, somehow tricked her but We'll survive, we will, we'll survive She loves me dearly, you'll see, she You are blind, you are, you are blind She loves me, dearly loves me, she Breathe in, breathe in Breathe in, breathe in Breathe in, breathe in Breathe in, breathe in Breathe in, breathe in Breathe in, breathe in Breathe He finally paused to take a breath Then looked down It felt like staring into hell The man was seated in a chair Before him, silent A statue framed in pain and flesh He thought, "Oh, what more can I say To sway him? To make this statue speak? I swear he's made of stone and I Am barely stirring up a breeze" I'm barely stirring up a breeze And after waiting In this silence, finally He finally turned around to leave Broken and barely through the doorway Breathing slowly Beating hard, he heard him Speak "I guess love's a funny thing The way it fades away without a warning It doesn't ask to be excused And when it's gone, oh, it's gone And it ain't ever comin' back There is nothing you can do to save it To make it breathe the way it did When you were sliding on the ring Trust me, it's gone for Good Now there is nothing you can do to stop me She is happy when she is with me and I am I am finally alive I'm sorry"
