If You Only Knew

from Temptator!, released October 27, 2022
I drag my weary legs
To the edge of town
Pass through the bone yard stones
And radio towers
You don’t know what a desperate man can do
My poor mother
If you only knew

I haul my shadow down
Into the woods
And I head to the end of the line
By light of the moon
Now I’ve dug this hole so deep
That it’s caving in on me
And it tears my insides out lying to you
You don’t know what a desperate man can do
My dear lover
If you only knew

A lone dark silhouette
Comes from the east
And I head in from the west until we meet
Down at the crossroads where we met
My idle hands close around his neck
And I’m face to face with myself, on death row

I’ll bury this man without a prayer or headstone
My sweetest daughter
You will never know

If you only knew
