Hard to Love What You Kill

had my finger on the trigger so long

seems like I'd shoot again by now

so hard when you can't stand the sound

and it's hard to trust

in the rust that collects on my '44

and I don't want to shoot anymore

and it's hard! Aint it hard - to love what you kill

I gathered your remnants and cleaned up the stains

I took care? we once were friends

but it's hard when your song never ends

and it's hard enough to be in love

but it's hard! Aint it hard - to love what you kill

I still can hear you're crying

'n hearse wheels rolling by carrying a body that's lost

so hard to be in love with a ghost

and it's hard enough to be in love

but it's hard! Aint it hard - to love what you kill

I've payed a lot of debt

and I do not regret the blood that I've spilt so well

but it's hard when you're burning in a hill

and it's hard! Aint it hard...
