Warm Blood Rush

“Dear God, what have you done?”

Those words ring loud in the back of your head

That bottle lies in a thick, blood red

“I ain’t no forgiver, forgetter” (2x)

Our mother waits in vain for a God that never loved us

As much as she prayed, he never showed up

“Dear God, where have you gone?”

Your brother is gone in the blink of an eye

That January night, our father lays cold

“Where’re you going to go? You’re only seventeen years old

“I ain’t no forgiver, forgetter” (2x)

Our mother waits in vain for a God that never loved us

As much as she prayed, he never showed up

Those cold steel tracks beneath your feet

Those same rail ties where you dodged those trains

When we were just two kids, oh, it still feels the same

That warm blood rush when the train comes

“I ain’t no forgiver, forgetter” (4x)

I’ll find you, put that vice to your head

Again, and again, and again, and again, and again”
