Tekster: Alkaline Trio. Hell Yes.

I gave up on you a long time ago
How can you blame me?
We made plans to meet and you never showed
You kept me waiting

They said everything would work out just fine
They said you'd help me
But as it turns out, it was all a lie
And they're off someplace far away laughing at me

You've been there for me one time in my life
But it didn't matter
You came and went so fast
All my hope and faith in you shattered

And now here I sit alone in this room
No one to confide in
You watched all my dreams come apart at the seams
You laughed, you left, you waited in hiding

Bless me dark father, I have sinned
I've done it before and I'll do it again
'Cause it keeps me warm and makes you smile
Been beneath me all the while, hell yes

You gave up on me a long time ago
I can't say I blame you
I rejected the faith in your holy rays
Is what it comes down to

They said everything would work out just fine
I just went crazy
But I'm better now having a good time
Being selfish and drunken, vulgar and lazy

Bless me dark father, I have sinned
I've done it before and I'll do it again
'Cause it keeps me warm and makes you smile
Been beneath me all the while

Bless me dark father, I can't win
Without you I'm as good as dead
'Cause you keep me warm and you make me smile
You've been on my shoulder all the while

Whispering sweet nothings
Whispering sweet nothings
Whispering sweet nothings
You've been whispering sweet nothings
