I can’t un- kill a man
Verse
I dug a hole and buried the sun.
Two years ago, today.
I’ve lived in the dark forsaken god.
Struggled to find my way.
Pre chorus
Doubt whispers you won’t make it.
Grief moans, why even try.
Despair took a hold of me.
They’ve all but ruined my life.
Chorus
I can’t outrun what I’ve done.
I can’t un- kill a man.
I can’t un- kill, can’t un kill
I can’t un- kill a man.
Verse
I took a life while robbing a bank.
Two years ago, today.
I’ve been on the run from johnny law.
I’ve thrown my life away.
Pre chorus
Doubt whispers you won’t make it.
Grief moans, why even try.
Despair took a hold of me.
They’ve all but ruined my life.
Chorus
I can’t outrun what I’ve done.
I can’t un- kill a man.
I can’t un- kill, can’t un kill
I can’t un- kill a man.
Bridge
His children have no father.
His wife lost her first love.
His mother lost her youngest.
That’s what a murder does.
