[Verse 1]
    
Her eyes and w

ords are so ic

y
             
Oh, but she bu


rns
            
Like rum on th

  
e fire

Hot and fast a

nd angry as sh

e can be
         
I walk my days

      
 on a wire


[Pre-Chorus 1]

          
 It looks ugly

            
,    but it's 


clean
          
 Oh mama, don'

         
t fuss over me


[Chorus]
            
  The way she 

             
tells me I'm h


ers and she is

 mine
            
 Open hand or 

           
closed fist wo

       
uld be fine
            
The blood is r

        ( 
are and sweet 

          
as cherry wine


[Verse 2]

Calls of guilt

y thrown at me

, all while sh

e

stains
            
The sheets of 

     
some other

Thrown at me s

o powerfully, 

just like she

throws
            
With the arm o

      
f her brother


[Pre-Chorus 2]
           
 But I want it

         
, it's a crime
          
 That she's no

           
t around most 

       
of the time


[Chorus 2]
            
 The way she s

            
hows me I'm he


rs and she is

 mine
            
 Open hand or 

           
closed fist wo

       
uld be fine
            
The blood is r

        ( 
are and sweet 

         
as cherry wine


[Verse 3]
     
Her fight and 

fury is fiery
             
Oh, but she lo


ves
            
Like sleep to 

     
the freezing

Sweet and righ

t and merciful

, I'm all but

washed
            
In the tide of

     
 her breathing


[Pre-Chorus 3]
          
 And it's wort

            
h it,  it's di

 
vine
         
 I have this s

         
ome of

[Chorus 3]

            
 The way she s

            
hows me I'm he


rs and she is

 mine
            
 Open hand or 

           
closed fist wo

       
uld be fine
            
The blood is r

        ( 
are and sweet 

         
as cherry wine
