There is whiskey

in the water

And there is death

upon the vine

There is fear in the

eyes of your father

And there is yours

and there is mine

There is a desert

veiled in pavement

And there''s a city

of seven hills

And all our debris

flows to the ocean

To meet again

I hope it will

How could something

so fair be so cruel

When this black sun

revolved around you

There is an answer

in a question

And there is hope

within despair

And there is beauty

in a failure

And there are

depths beyond compare

There is a role

of a lifetime

And there''s a song

yet to be sung

And there''s a

Dumpster in the driveway

Of all the plans

that came undone

How could something

so fair be so cruel

When this black sun

revolved around you

How could something

so fair be so cruel

When this black sun

revolved around you

There is whiskey

in the water

And there is death

upon the vine

And there is grace

within forgiveness

But it''s so hard

for me to find

How could something

so fair be so cruel

When this black sun

revolved around you

How could something

so fair be so cruel

When this black sun

revolved around you
