FAILURE SCULPTURES - Fences

Oh the devil has taken my baby away from me

And I’m not sure what I could’ve done differently

I tried everything

And maybe I just tried too hard, maybe I tried barely

Maybe trying scares me

I know I’m not 23, my age is catching up with me

Now I’m not so pretty

Well I know our love is blaring loud

From all the houses we’ve moved out

Well I know our love is blaring loud

From all the houses we’ve moved out

Oh the devil has taken my lady away from me

And I’m not sure what I could’ve sung differently

This is the melody

I’m really not that strong, you see

She’s stubborn as a cedar tree

I’m breakin' like a levee

Maybe we just planned too far and sewed our future out of yarn

When we should be weaving

Well I know our love is blaring loud

From all the houses we’ve moved out

Well I know our love is blaring loud

From all the houses we’ve moved out

What the devil has come of me lately?

This isn’t me

And I’m not sure what I could’ve brought differently

This is the gift we need

I know you wanna sting me, but honey it’s not working

Cause all the bees are walking

And maybe it’s the birthday card I buried in my mother’s yard

She’ll read it when she’s talking
