lyrics

All of this time you’re spending with me
I’ll have to pay back, so many times
With the waters seeping from me
Like grapes crushed on the vine
And where the knives meet between the rows
I am cut and I do not grow back

The grass was greener so you jumped the fence
Our side was dried out and brown
Whose pastures did you run to?
Me and the dog sniffed for a clue in the stuff you left around
And when our teeth meet between the lips
I will bite until your flesh pulls back

I found you in the orchard that fall
You were rubbing bark off with your back
While beneath you your new lover shuddered
You threw your head back and laughed
And now I stay up all night and wait
I am sure that you must come back

All of this time you spent with me
I gotta pay back so many times
