Every Man For Himself
by Tara-Leigh Cobble

Album: Morning's War

Verse 1:
more uncertain than i thought
afraid to sell the thing i bought
it's such a lovely little cage
i've come to ask the price i paid

Chorus:
you know
i don't like the way the story goes
i don't like the way the story ends

Verse 2:
so i do not hate the apple
that has fallen from your mouth
just the taste of your kiss after
and the stain you can't get out

Chorus:
you know
i don't like the way the story goes
i don't like the way the story ends

Bridge:
no one would watch this film
where redemption never comes
and the garden is lost to the darkness
and the lover dies unloved

all the hatches were battened
i don't know, i don't know what happened
so i cried out to the captain
forgetting i'd thrown him to the sea

Chorus:
oh, i don't like the way the story went
and i wonder will it ever end
