Tattoos

I am now the one she left

A haunted tale for someone else

A little bit about herself

Wherever she is sleeping

Flint strikes out to pierce the dark

Cause a flame from just one spark

Fill the room with smoke so harsh

She exhales a memory

The past is fadin'

Over time, but it's still hangin' on for life

I'm now her used to be

He is now the one she needs

He is now the one she leans on

She looks out at the sunset

On a quilt of rags he holds her tight

And they raise a toast of Bulleit Rye

Whiskey kills all things in time

Like things she don't remember

The past is fadin'

Over time, but it's still hanging on for life

I am now an old headstone

And to her grave I'll die alone

A testament of how she's grown

Wherever she is sleepin'

The past is fadin'

Over time, but it's still hanging on for life
