Veritable Murder
(My original song inspired by Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo)
A little piece of guesswork
I guess I tried the lock first
It took a little longer than before
I’m sinking in the harbor
Aren’t you so glad I’m keeping score
Lose all your trust in me
You love the way I say goodbye
The saints they keep testing you
I love the way I make you cry
Keep the city far beneath it’s graying, smoking sky
It’s my city so I’ll keep
A problem with the timing
I’ll disappear without a trace
And tell me it’s a promise
A demon is lost without a wraith
Lose all your trust in me
You love the way I say goodbye
The saints they keep testing you
I love the way I make you cry
Keep the city far beneath it’s graying, smoking sky
It’s my city so I’ll keep
These graying, hopeless eyes
Go sit pretty, far relieved
