Carrie by The OK Corral Lyrics

You fell in love
With a tall, dark man on a cross
Who was sent from above
And you tried to hide
From imposters and devils and monsters
That haunted your life

And you fought with the son

I can tell from the look in your eyes
You denied me three times with that smolder
I can tell from the form of your lips
And the strut in your step like a soldier
Goddamn if I don’t ever mend
I held you close, but not again

And in time came lust
And the suitors brought sutures
Vinyl records, and drugs
And you know he’s high
From the traipse in his gait
And the lines in the whites in his eyes
And you fought with the son
To "keep calm" and "carry on"

I can tell from the look in your eyes
You denied me three times with that smolder
I can tell from the form of your lips
And the strut in your step like a soldier
Goddamn if I don’t ever mend
I held you close, but not again
I hold a grudge right till the end

When the color evanesces from your eyes
I’m gonna let you down, I’m gonna let you die
When your flawless skin shifts shades of lily white
You say, "It'll be alright"
I’ll let you down just to prove I was wrong

I can tell from the look in your eyes
You denied me three times with that smolder
I can tell from the form of your lips
And the strut in your step like a soldier
Goddamn if I don’t ever mend
I held you close, but not again
I hold a grudge right till the end
I held you close, but not again
