Letra de Ballad Of The Bastard - Aidan Moffat

I crushed your heart in my bloody fists
when i did the honest thing and told you of my trysts:
you demanded truth, that's exactly what you got,

you should've killed me there right where i stood
when i casually confessed that i'd been up to no good;
you should've just stepped back and taken your best shot,

but i assured you then that i could change my ways,
and i think that might've lasted for a couple of days
and once again the self-styled lady killer's caught,

the sensible solution is to walk away,
but I'll cunningly convince you that you've got to stay,
i'll poison your resolve and twist your every thought,

i don't love you, who knows if i ever did?
who the fuck did i think i was trying to kid?
you're just the latest sucker that i've sought,

everyone is scared of being on their own,
i thought i was the master but my cover's blown,
consider me a lesson deftly taught
