Breaks In the Armor

Went to see my fortune teller
To see which way the winds were blowin'
She said you'll probably get the cancer
She said you'll surely die alone

It seems so far away and so long
Ago to, do any harm
To draw the same bad blood out of you
Went to see my fortune teller

I'll take my chances on the hustle
I'll cut my losses and keep movin'
Double-cross'll cost you double
But you got nothing left for losing

So won't you tell me fortune teller
Which way the chilly winds are blowin'
Blow me down I got no future
Don't blow me back I got no home

And if I call my name
In your arms
Cutting you
In my love

To draw the same bad blood out of you
Years rolling by eye for an eye
All I can see now is the damage done
If what you do comes back to you

We've got a lot to be afraid of
It seems so far away and so long
Ago to, do any harm
To draw the same bad blood out of you

And if I call my name
In your arms
Cutting you
In my love

To draw the same bad blood out of you

Went to the city for the drugs and dancing
She lights up pretty from so far away come closer
You come and go alone you don't stand a chance

It wants too much to see you crash and crumble
To let you die out on the road
Come stumbling homeward
We all know you and how you're not ever coming back

I keep moving but I'm getting nowhere
The neighborhoods we used to roam have all been stolen
She was my homegirl but I feel no connection to her now

We take a little from the devil's coffer
They get you hooked then let you go and crossing over
You never know how far unless you take the chance

Wasting my time inside snake oil shelter
It's much too much to take the whole thing on your shoulders
To carry everyone caught believing in you down

I keep on going but I'm getting nowhere
Watching the people on the road out on their own cold
You come and go alone you don't stand a chance
