Cry Wolf - Equation

He rode down

With his brain on fire

Ready to fall into bed

He knew his happiness

Hung by a wire

If she could believe what he said

Through the door

And into the hall

Hoping to find what he missed

No books on the floor

No wine on the wood

She left nothing to show she existed

Oh darling Marie come home

(Please come home)

Come home and tell me, try

Oh Marie, I’m still here

Waiting for you to decide

Crying wolf

Just too many times

No one answered your call

We never knew

You were drunk every night

Waiting for justice to fall

Oh darling Marie come home

(Please come home)

Come home and tell me, fight

Oh Marie, I’m still here

Waiting for you to decide

She can bloom like a flower in season

Now she can grow

(She is free)

She can sing like the birds in the trees

Only now she is solo

She left home

With his life in her hands

Hoping to find a new way

She won’t toe the line

But she now understands

How to stop her life turning to gray

Oh darling Marie come home

(Please come home)

Come home and tell me why

Oh Marie, I’m still here

Waiting for you to decide

Oh darling Marie come home

(Please come home)

Come home and forget my lies

Oh Marie, I’m still here

Waiting for you to decide
