dog army - the color of whiskey كلمات الأغنية

she walked lonely
into the bar
and spotted her man
from afar
he was sharing his whiskey
laugh and a seat
with some harlot he would never
let her meet

she watched like a snake
then recoiled like a doe
back to her empty home
was the only place to go
she brooded, wrote and drew
with a heavy black ink
what’s a woman to do
but feel pain and think

she wrote, she read
she drew, she bled
it was all shе could see

he arrived dark_early
from businеss, he claimed
it was all she could do
to keep her face unchanged
i have an idea, honey
listen to me
when we wake, let’s picnic
down by the creek
he huffed an okay
those were his yesses these days
then he slipped to his last slumber
with nothing more to say

she wrote, she read
she drew, she bled
it was all she could see

when she woke, she packed
the whole picnic, her task
he prepared nothing
except his old worn flask
with her smile, they set off
for the creek
he asked her, “how long is this going to take”
just the rest of your life, she thought

but answered him playful
with an “aw, c’mon”
where the creek ran quickly
and the creek ran clear
she set the blanket out
and said, “it’s perfect here”
she set the scene
so serene and pretty
they, the only ones
so far from the city
she wrote, she read
she drew, she bled
it was all she could see

nature’s greens and golds
blended with the water
and opened his eyes
to how he truly saw her
you did all of this
for me and us
i’ve been ignoring your
gift of love

she smiled sweetly
and with a start
reached into her bag
and pulled her tools for art
what’s that for
you will see
take off your shirt
and come over to me
lulled by once
forgotten love

he took off his shirt
and she put on her gloves
before he could speak
she took off her shirt
he swallowed his question
and said “oh, the gifts of this earth
our love is the ink
in this pen
let me tattoo it onto you
to show it has no end”
with remorseful clarity
he said, “yes”
she gestured to the water
and they both undressed
she wrote, she read
she drew, she bled
it was all she could see

naked in the knee_deep water
she looked into his eyes and said
i saw her
she thrashed him in the neck
with that inky pen
it cracked within his sinew
and regret
the blood and the ink
spilled out as a set
he dropped like an unstrung
marionette
those red and black snakes
turned to dust in the water
and diluted to
a curious golden color

she knelt and washed
the blood and love
from her skin
along with her feelings of liberation
that body floating downstream
belonged to a b_st_rd
but was also once
my true and worthy lover

she knelt in the water
and shed a tear
then got dressed on the shore
when the water ran clear

his throat, it bled
with black, and red
it was all she could see

she packed the picnic
and walked homeward bound
aimless as a widow
in an empty town
she discarded her burdens
as best she could
dumpsters don’t hold
guilt too good

his throat, it bled
with black and red
it was all she could see

she entered the bar
and sat at a stool
“is this where my husband
took me for a fool”

his throat, it bled
with black, and red
it was all she could see

she thought, “yeah, that’s revenge
it ain’t supposed to be sweet
nothin’ that can’t be fixed
with a double whiskey”

his throat, it bled
with black and red
it was all she could see

she gulped it down
and let it burn
“he was a worthless man
it’s what he deserved”

she looked at her drink
and stood up in horror
she looked at her drink
and stood up in horror
whiskey’s the color
of blood, ink, and water
she looked at her drink
and stood up in horror
whiskey’s the color
of blood, ink, and water
she looked at her drink
and stood up in horror
whiskey’s the color
of blood, ink, and water
she looked at everything
and backed out in horror
everything’s the color
of blood, ink, and water
