Weepncry (A Love Song) Lyrics

Your mother told me to watch out for you

She said you'd only bring me down

I was begging licks and sleeping in my guitar case

And you came around

You handed me a tire iron

I brushed my hair out of my face

I still don't know why you came

I don't know why you came

I've never been awake for so long

I'm wasting time

If you're sitting here and waiting for a love song

You can weep and cry

But I'd never pen a verse about a woman so benign

So shoot the cow and brand the duck

I couldn't find my head

I had a hat to keep my nickels in

But was swooping like the weeping dead

Your cold cold fingers moaned

They were the antidote that broke the skin

I still don't know what this is

I don't know what this is

I've never been awake for so long

I'm wasting time

If you're sitting here and waiting for a love song

You can weep and cry

But I'd never pen a verse about a woman so benign

Then a miraculous thing happened to me

God ate me in my sleep

I arched my back and I racked my bones

But I woke up at your feet

We make a lot of children cry you know

You don't seem to really mind

I still don't know where I am

And I haven't got the time

I've never been awake for so long

I'm wasting time

If you're sitting here and waiting for a love song

You can weep and cry

But I'd never pen a verse about a woman so benign

Curse the artist that made all this!

Curse him and his sinful hands!

In a little room I dream that I am

In my mother's arms again

Or sleeping in my guitar bag

Or remembering how to pray

It's not you it's me I just wish I knew

When there was something more to save

I've never been awake for so long

I'm wasting time

If you're sitting here and waiting for a love song

You can weep and cry

But I'd never pen a verse about a woman so benign
