John Lenio - On the Vine

One time I got a mouthful
Of something truly sweet
And to get back to that place
I would drink each and every sea

God, don't begrudge me what is mine
I know my debts and I will pay them all in time
I've built this throne of blood and bone
Of ripened fruit left rotting on the vine

So with time I healed and hardened
In those places I was hurt
And I left each piece I didn't need there deep under the dirt
Down in the dirt

God, don't begrudge me what is mine
I know my debts and I will pay them all in time
I've built this throne of blood and bone
Of ripened fruit left rotting on the vine

God won't forgive me what I've done
And Goddamn he ain't the only one
Six feet down in the frozen ground
Well, I said you'd better run
And you should've run
