Don't Ask for the Water

Don't ask her for the water
'Cause she'll teach you to cry
I'm smelling a rat
But down here in the sewer
With her hands on her chest

And a tight fastened lip
And a book full of quotes
'Cause she'll teach you to cry
And her belfry's got arch
And her weapon of choice
And the dust on our heels
'Cause she'll sink like a ship
And I hate who I was
If you learned how to swim
Just in case you drown
Through what somber fields

And a sack full of stones
With our lovers at war

And she's ten miles of peace

In the hardest of nights
Don't ask her for the water

Is a red patterned dress
And what horses we rode
'Cause she'll swallow you down

And the infidels screamed
'Cause her water's all that
But her rooftops are all right
Don't ask her for the water

Don't ask her for the water
Don't ask her for the water
Don't ask her for the whiskey
"It's all but a lie"
Who I ended up since
