[length: 05:03]
[00:19.63]I needed you, I knew I was in danger
[00:30.34]Of losing what I used to think was mine
[00:41.39]You let me love you ’til I was a failure
[00:51.48]You let me love you ’til I was a failure
[01:00.55]Your beauty on my bruise like iodine
[01:07.23]
[01:35.10]I asked you if a man could be forgiven
[01:46.53]And though I failed at love, was this a crime?
[01:57.98]You said, “Don’t worry, don’t worry, darling”
[02:08.06]You said, “Don’t worry, don’t you worry, darling
[02:17.06]There are many ways a man can serve his time”
[02:23.89]
[02:52.44]You covered up that place I could not master
[03:02.85]It wasn’t dark enough to shut my eyes
[03:13.74]So I was with you, oh sweet compassion
[03:23.81]Yes I was with you, oh sweet compassion
[03:33.26]Compassion with the sting of iodine
[03:42.87]Your saintly kisses reeked of iodine
[03:52.51]Your fragrance with a fume of iodine
[04:02.88]And pity in the room like iodine
[04:08.83]
[04:32.15]My masquerade of trust was iodine
[04:42.12]And everywhere the flare of iodine
[04:51.44]Yes, it started with the flare of iodine
