lyrics

She wrote she thought she loved me
And I didn’t say a thing
But I traced her words
Like they were Poems on skin

I took the heart she sent me
And I hid it away
Wrapped in a red silk ribbon
Like a blindfold
For another day

When we stood in church together
I thought she finally found the truth
But she sang hymns
As if she never known a lie

I said I’m not that Christian soldier
And with that she broke all ties
And in return I taught her how to question
Why Why

When my world came down
She came and kicked at the debris
Found that red silk bundle
And I took to my knees

As if she’d finally found the answer
She laughed and held my head
Don’t believe everything you read
She said
Don’t believe everything you read

I took the heart she sent me
And I hid it away
Wrapped in a red silk ribbon
Like a blindfold
For another day
Another day
