Widow Lyrics

Widow (寡妇) - Poor Moon

After all the years she spent

Never knowing where he went

When he needed to be nowhere to be found

He didn't show on time

Never paid a cent

Not one dime

Four weeks late for rent

Never gave a reason

Never stayed for long

Always in a hurry

Always had to run

He was chasing after

What he might be sorry if he hadn't done

Maybe this is for the best

That was all the letter said

When she found it waiting there

On his favorite reading chair

Dug her hand into the ground

And quickly lost the taste

For moving dirt around

You could see it coming

The time was up

Knew how many spoons of poison honey

Were in the cup

With what would only be served

To bring him down

And she will always live alone

In the oldest part of town
