Weak

When I was a stronger woman
I took my comfort from the cold
I safely left the door wide open
With no concern for my soul

Then a devil came around,
and he laid my body down,
and left my feet a’hangin’
fourteen feet off of the ground

It seems I was getting schooled
on a whole new set of rules
in a game I thought was only make believe,
and I thought i played it well,
didn’t realize I fell
‘til I raised my own white flag in defeat
Oh, it left me weak!

Then for an endless moment,
my hues had all been drained
just a shadow of the former woman,
watercolour in the rain

and that Devil came back ‘round,
and he pulled me off the ground,
and he dropped me in the river,
and he left me there to drown

It seems I was getting schooled
on a whole new set of rules
in a game I thought was only make-believe.
And I thought I played it well,
I didn’t realize I fell,
‘til I raised my own white flag in defeat.
And it left me weak

I forgot my own damn rule,
played myself for a fool - heeeeey-ey

It seems I was getting schooled
on yet another set of rules
in another God* game of make-believe
Fool me once, so they say,
but I didn’t turn away,
walked myself into the flame it seems,
and it left me weak.
Oh, it left me weak.
