Right Away, Great Captain! Blame Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know you must know it now
My organs have stoned
My fingers are numb around
Your warm, pulsing throat
And I whisper, "my wife"
She opens her pale eyes
She smiled, so I smiled
And I got what I deserve
This house was my flowered heart
My petals have fallen
Do you love him? Tell me now
Or I'll show you my scars

[Chorus]
And you will bow, boldly, and tell me you're sorry
But you're hardly moving, wake up and give me what I know I deserve

[Verse 2]
The farmer's wife heard it from
The street down below
And later fully recalled
Each harrowing note

[Chorus]
And she will cry, "Holy Spirit has cursed me
For this, my ending sooner than I deserve" [Verse 3]
The children weren't lucky
To have only used ears
As I stood on top of him looking down
I felt the fear in their skin

[Chorus]
They pled, "Father, did you kill our leader?
Our rock and great teacher, what did he deserve?"
And I replied, "No, killed my leeches, and the wound that has freed us
And I hope you can see it for what I deserve."

[Verse 4]
The judge would ask why, again
Was it him and not her
The only response I could think
Was "to settle my nerves"

[Chorus]
And try killing my leeches, for sucking me speechless
Abandoning secrets and trust all the same
So I deserve what I deserve
I deserve what I deserve
