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

I 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 shе'll never dance

Hidе 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 until 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
