Would it kill you to breath easy
|
Only seventeen miles lay between you and me
|
I could make it if I had to
|
I don’t break easily
|
You’ve got my counsel thick as thieves
|
If there’s a crime, we’ll keep it secret
|
For there’s only trace amounts left in your blood
|
|
You may be a sinner, but you may be justified
|
|
Just keep your mouth shut
|
Keep your guard up
|
I swear I’ll make it right
|
|
Will it kill me to breath
|
Not as easy as you think it is
|
Between you and me
|
I could fake it if I have to
|
I don’t break easily
|
I need your counsel thick as thieves
|
I have no crime to keep a secret
|
It was hers it was not mine
|
|
Well I may be a sinner, but it wasn’t me this time
|
|
Just keep your mouth shut
|
Keep your guard up
|
I swear I’ll make it right
|
|
Well listen to yourself
|
There is a hemorrhage in your mouth
|
It won’t stop bleeding
|
|
Well, you may be the traitor
|
I will hold the smoking gun
|
You’ll get away clean
|
I’ll keep your secrets
|
Till the grave has swallowed me
|
And I will never tell a tortured soul
|
That are burning by my side
|
That I am a sinner, I am a savior, I am alive
|
|
So keep your mouth shut
|
Keep your guard up
|
I swear I’ll make it right
|
