lyrics

I felt a rain come down on my poor soul
It was sun shiny outside
Black days have come, darkened my door
I can't wait till falling twilight.

I'm filled with mean, mixed sadness and blue
Got a cruel kind of spirit inside
I sit on this cold log, stare holes in the distance
Knowing you're no longer mine.

At the strike of 12, I unleash my hate
Misery and woe i can't hide
I sit and I drink and I curse my fate
Lonesome and Midnight.

Heart broke, piss poor, a sound with no name
Night whistles scream out from a train
The words from your mouth, a little too late
Letters I found by mistake.

I wished you'd shown me half of that love
The tenderness you wrote with your pen
To someone you loved with that beautiful body
Over and over again.

These chains of self pity, I scream and bemoan
I took steps to keep you in line
As scarce as ant's teeth, or fish with 2 feet
Your love was the hardest to find.

I will deny this, but I pledge my revenge
Retribution for wrongs that you done
It's neither a bullet, a pistol or gun
It's this tree where my lasso is hung.

The songs reek of the human abyss, danger and disappointment because, in Reynolds' Noir world, hope and desperation go hand in hand -- for his dreams of easy deliverance are empty, two sided and vague. ... more
