Leader Of The Landslide

Lyrics

Every night I saw you there
 In your old wicker chair, singing, ooh
 You were wrong, I was right
 Didn't matter in a fight, ooh
 ♪
 Coffee mug filled it up
 Always knew what it was, sing, ooh
 Been on your side for years
 You could never love without crying, ooh
 Is she dead, is she fine?
 Every day, every night
 ♪
 Fate has dealt me a lonely blow, I said, ooh
 Tried to help, it only hurt
 In the end I made it worse, ooh
 Is she dead, is she fine?
 Every day, every night
 ♪
 Give back my keys, give back my chair
 Take back those clothes you always left on the floor
 ♪
 You drove me wild, drove me insane
 Drank the whole bottle, forgot my name
 All I ever wanted was a mother for the first time
 Finally I could see you as the leader of the landslide
 She left, she left, the writing's on the wall
 Please believe me, I smell the alcohol
 The only thing I know is that we're in too deep
 And maybe when she's dead and gone I'll get some sleep
 ♪
 You blamed it all on your kids
 We were young, we were innocent
 You told me a lie, fuck you for that
 Fuck all your pride and fuck all your prayers and
 All this time I waited like a fool and for the first time
 Finally I can see you as the leader of the landslide
 She left, she left, the writing's on the wall
 Please believe me, don't answer when she calls
 The only thing I know is that we're in too deep
 And maybe when she's dead and gone I'll get some sleep
 ♪
 Out there on my own, I was feeling so alone
 Like a poltergeist in the afterlife
 Fading by degrees, I was shaking in the knees
 In the aftermath of this broken glass
 Whoa, whoa, whoa
