about

Sickness and health.

lyrics

Every day's a blessing
That's the fucking lesson
You would rather question
Than listen to confession

Spit it out cough it up
It's never tough enough
You wanted it rough
Not used to being rebuffed
Nah

Every time you came to town
I made reasons to be around
The cancer and the cure you found
Still I always felt left down

No time for sorry for yourself
The rising fear you try to quell
The gulf is wide to the other side of the well
Where you could always soak and dwell

An apocalypse couldn't stop this pain
In the copse of trees, your lips stained
The surprise you feigned
The moonlight waned

Coughing up blood it's bitter like tea
It's a strange sight to see
When you think you're so healthy
It hasn't got the best of me

Every day's a blessing
That's the fucking lesson
You would rather question
Than listen to confession

Spit it out cough it up
It's never tough enough
You wanted it rough
Not used to being rebuffed
Nah
