Drop for Every Hour

I hit him hard and made it known he wasn't gonna make it home No matter how much he might disagree And suddenly I saw it in his eyes when it clicked The last thing he was gonna see was me And fear is such a funny thing, we wear it like a diamond ring With promises we never plan to keep "I swear that if you let me go" and so-and-so But tears are only water, and water is cheap Mirror mirror on the counter, covered in fine white powder What the hell is fair at all? So I'll take a drop for every hour she'll never dance Hide a piece in every city she'll never see I know that this won't make it better But I don't want to live without her So the last drop, the last drop is for me I never thought there'd be a day I didn't get to hold my daughter Terrified knowing that I'd never come to terms with this at all I never knew how much a man could hate 'til I read that letter And like you said, none of us are saints, if I recall I never knew how patient I could be until I watched you bleed There's nothing I can take from you that means what she did to me Every word from your fucking mouth is like bringing wood to a burning house And we'll be here all night 'til ashes are all we breathe So I'll take a drop for every hour she'll never dance I'll hide a piece in every city she'll never see I know that this won't bring her back And I'll never find relief So the last drop Oh, the last drop The last drop is for me --- Drop for Every Hour - Amigo The Devil
