Iâm coming into your town. Night is falling to the ground, but I can still see where you loved yourself before he tore it all down. April 12th, with nobody else around; you were outside the house (whereâs your mother?), when he put you in the car, when he took you down the road. And I can still see where it was open, the door he slammed closed. It was open, the door he slammed closed. It was open, long ago. But donât lose me now, donât lose me now. Though I know that Iâm not useful anyhow, just let me stick around while I tell you, like before, you should say his name the way that he said yours. But you don't want to say his name anymore. Oh, Cynda Moore. Baby daughter on the road, youâre wrapped up warm in daddyâs coat. And I can still see the cigaretteâs heat. I canât believe all that you're telling me, what is cutting like the smoke through your teeth as youâre telling me âforget it.â But if I could tear his throat, and spill his blood between my jaws, and erase his name out for good, donât you know that I would? Don't you realize that I wouldnât pause, that I would cut him down with my claws if I could have somehow never let that happen? Or Iâd call, some black midnight, fuck up his new life where they donât know what he did, tell his brand-new wife and his second kid. Though I tell you, like before, that you should wreck his life the way that he wrecked yours, you want no part of his life anymore. Oh Cynda Moore, donât lose me now, let me help you out. Though I know that I canât help anyhow, when I watch you Iâm proud. When I tell you twice before that you should wreck his life the way that he wrecked yours, you want no part of his life anymore. And itâll never be the way it was before, but I wish that you would let me through that door. Let me through that door, baby.
