Killing Him

By Amy LaVere (2007)
On album Anchors and Anvils (2007)

Anchors and Anvils
He didnt come home till the light of the day
He wasnt with her he would say
They fought through the morning and all of the day
Shed have to kill him to get him to stay

Killing him didnt make the love go away
Killing him didnt make the love go away
Killing him didnt make the love go away
Killing him didnt make the love go away

She gave him everything that she had
Changed anything he said was bad

Love weighed on her heart like marble stone
Flash of the knife, he was gone
Said he would give her the sun and the moon
Now all she has is this eight-by-eight room

Killing him didnt make the love go away
Killing him didnt make the love go away
Killing him didnt make the love go away
Killing him didnt make the love go away

She thought of him every night and all of the day
Missing the baby she did away
Blowing kisses to the concrete sky
Hoping theyd reach him in heaven high

Love weighed on her heart like marble stone
Flash of the knife, he was gone
Said he would give her the sun and the moon
Now all she has is this eight-by-eight room
