Last Blues For Bloody Knuckles Lyrics - Singles - La Dispute

Last Blues For Bloody Knuckles: 

My precious wife, I am in shambles 

I am crumbling, I am 

Was it something I did 

Bid the tide to climb so high that it ripped our shore up 

I can fix it, I swear 

If you trust me 

I am old and I am rusting but I care 

I care

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

My precious wife, we made a promise 

Pledged our flesh to be one 

How can you doubt a love that stood so proud as we raised our children 

I believe in it still 

It has faltered and it has faded 

But I know it's there 

How'd it change 

The way you thought of me 

How strange to think we once were lovers 

Now we've wrapped the past up in broken glass 

And when you speak my name you shudder 

Oh precious wife, believe I'll save this 

I'll revive it, I will 

We've built a family from this marriage 

Why would you tear it apart 

Photos 

Oh speak now, precious 

Your silence screams 

You're giving in to failure 

Hear me, the promise that you made was meant to live forever 

Until our deathbed, you're not allowed to change your mind 

Was there nothing in that promise 

Are you listening to me 

Oh husband, I could not control it 

Husband, I could not abstain 

One cannot stop the wind from blowing 

Nor refuse the falling rain 

Love stirred up a storm inside me 

Wrapped its arms around my waist 

I failed you dear, I'm sorry, oh I'm sorry 

There was nothing I could do 

No, there was nothing I could 

Sure as the rain will fall 

Some love just fails without reason 

There is nothing you can do 

There is nothing you can do 

There is nothing you can do 

There is nothing you can do
