This is for the one who was false who taught me about building walls
One who could always turn it around to leave me here on shaky ground
This is for the one who made good in someone else's neighborhood
One who was never anything but the shifty eye of sheer bad luck
Once I thought that I would never forget
And I have not quite done that yet
But I could hurt you now
I could hurt you now
This is for the time that I lost the death of who I thought I was
The things in which I cannot believe for fear I'll wear them on my sleeve
Things I know that never will be returned
But I crossed that bridge before it burned
So I could hurt you now
I could hurt you now
Maybe it leaves an invisible scar
But I have not come quite that far
But I could hurt you now
(Listen, sonny boy
