Lirieke: Austin Lucas. Other. Somebody Loves You.

Easy there, old man
I?ll drop you where you stand
You wear wings of white but I smell your hellfire
Cause I know who you are, a racist and a coward
And all you?ve got to show for life is dust

Cause you lay roses on the ground
And turn lies to common wisdom
You?re a good man when it suits you
Yes I know

But whatever good you?ve done
Is dwarfed by mountains made of wrong
And your savior may forgive you but I won?t

Oh but somebody loves you
I guess they don?t know better
There?s a fool for every fool
And somebody loves you
Oh yeah somebody loves you
And how can it be true
There?s a fool for every fool
And somebody loves you

It was from you I learned some men cannot be trusted
And from you I learned some friends do not inspire
Cause you were like my brother
But you filled my heart with anger
And I?ll thank you when those lessons have helped at all

Oh your stories gave me life and they flowed through me like wine
But they were darkest pitch-black arrows to my soul
Yes I was your true believer now my bones do shake and shiver
With a poison that does rot me to the core

Oh but I did once love you
I guess I knew no better
Yes I was once that fool
And I did love you
Oh yes I did once love you
And how can it be true
That I was once that fool
And I did love you

And like some ghastly phantom voice, lifelong companion
Or a devil on left shoulder, lashing tongue
I spit crescents, spite filled language like some drunkard
To the heavens, when to hell he knows his spirit?s surely bound

Yes I lay roses on the ground and deceive you beyond wisdom
There?s a good man in the shadows, so I?m told
But whatever good I?ve done
Is dwarfed by mountains made of wrong
And that truth comes cold to blacken out the sun

Oh but somebody loves me
I guess they don?t know better
There?s a fool for every fool
And somebody loves me
Oh yeah somebody loves me
And how can it be true
That somebody loves me
Somebody loves you
