Rick Allen Lyrics

In Ink Please Rick Allen

I'll take back the things I said if you'll take back the things you didn't

You took everything I had, but I do not begrudge you that

It's more, it's more than what you sold

It's more, it's more than what you did or didn't say

It's what you gave away

You gave away

Like it didn't mean a thing

Take off that ring

It hurts to see you wear it

I still feel you like a phantom limb that nobody can see

When I say, "you're always with me," what I mean is:

"you're attached to me. every socket, shoulder to the knee. come back to me."

As the months go by, I realize: it's more like a phantom rest-of-me

Half gone and fading

Since the day the world stopped where I stood

Are you gone for good, gone for good?

Did you feel guilty for scheming while I laid beside you dreaming

Fast asleep of future plans?

Unaware of trecherous hands

Oh, my sweet snake on its belly in the green, green growing grass:

You were bold

You were brash

You were completely unabashed

And now the course has changed so entirely

I am so far from where I wanted to be
