Daniel Romano - Ugly Human Heart Pt. 2 Lyrics

She could have gone for anything
But me I would have booked her for the murder
Of anyone who listened close to me
And never really even heard her
Oh
There's a wall in every room
Of any age that hangs a canvas of regret
But mine are scattered on the floor
The oil's too thin and always dripping wet like
Her ugly human heart

Every hour we lived in terror
Of being the one of us who's left behind
We stared into the empty sky
For something that we knew we couldn't find
Oh

And maybe some day years from now
I'll find her as a guard dog to my future
Though even if I don't
I'm sure she'll find a way to tell me I misused her
Her and
Her ugly human heart

Well the tavern's open later now
And I can stay until the serve my blood
Yes, but often she'll appear only to sneer at me and say
"Why this beer?" All of this love
She used to say she thought
That late at night I had a face like Humphrey Bogart
But now she haunts me like the ghost of God reborn
With an ugly human heart
