Covered In The Blood
Already it's autumn again
The leaves in the trees
Are polperie resting on the land
I tried to forget you
But I still see you in the streams
I tried to forget you
But I still see you in my dreams
This always was your favorite time to be alive
When them Canadian geese set across the American sky to fly
I can see your pink cheeks in the pink of the pink leaves
My mind's a camera
I say three
And you say cheese

I never loved another
Does that make you happy or sad?
I guess when I think about it
I think you're the best that I ever had
But when I think about the way that you left
I feel a bitterness rising in my chest
Did I really love you that wrong?
I tried to love you hard
And love you strong
Was it all just in your mind?
You always were the silent kind
I passed the cemetery where your body lies
And I hugged your mothers neck and we both said our goodbyes
She still calls every now and again
To say hello and check in on the kids
Well you should see how much they've grown
You should see how much they know
I told them you loved them but you had to go
And you're in heaven now with all of the angels

I was praying at the altar of God
But He wouldn't let me get very far
He said if I wanted to talk to Him
I had to talk to you first
And forgive you for all this hurt

Well I love you
But I gotta let this go
I can't go on like this
The both of us know
I forgive you for what you've done
It's all over now
It's covered in the blood
