Oh, Cynda Moore…

I’m coming into your town.
Night is falling to the ground,
but I can still see where you loved
yourself before he tore it all down.
April 12th, with nobody else around;
you were outside the house
(where’s your mother?)
when he put you in the car,
when he took you down the road….

And I can still see
where it was open,
the door he slammed closed.
(It was open)
the door he slammed closed.
It was open,

long ago.

But don’t lose me now,
don’t lose me now.
Though I know that I’m not useful anyhow,
just let me stick around
while I tell you, like before,
you should say his name
the way that he said yours.
But you don’t want
to say his name anymore.
Oh, Cynda Moore.

Baby daughter on the road….
wrapped up warm in daddy’s coat.
And I can still see
the cigarette’s heat….

I can’t believe all that you’re telling me

words are cutting like the smoke
through your teeth
as you are telling me

forget it.

But if I could tear his throat…
and spill his blood between my jaws,
and erase his name out for good,
don’t you know that I would?
Don’t you realize that I wouldn’t pause
that I would cut him down with my claws
if I could have somehow never let that happen?

Or I’d call some black midnight,
fuck up his new life where they don’t know what he did,
tell his brand-new wife and his second kid.
Though I tell you, like before,

you should wreck his life
the way that he wrecked yours,

but you want no part of his life anymore.

Oh… Cynda Moore…

please don’t lose me now,
let me help you out…
Though I know
that I can’t help you
anyhow.

but when I watch you

I’m proud.

oh and I told you twice before
that you should wreck his life
the way that he wrecked yours,
but you want no part of his life anymore.

oh Cynda Moore.

And it’ll never be the way it was before,
but I wish that
you would let me through that door.

Let me through that door.

Oh… Cynda Moore…
