Swan Song

[written after Ozarks]

Didn't know this was coming
Should've known, should've known
All those times in your presence
When I felt so alone.

Do I care what the reason?
I can't lend this more sense
when you preface each statement
with "in my defense"

You offer me half --
A fair share on this trade?
Do you know what I've wagered
for this life that we've made?

So I'll take all for all
or my half of your heart,
or fulfil the arrangement
to let death do us part
