Forty-Five (Live) Lyrics by Jaye Bartell

Live at the Lantern

2020

[Verse 1]
On the shortest day the deed was certified
And I walked the crooked floor that I pinned in mind
She tried to give me a life, but all that I didn't do was die
Didn’t I?
[Chorus]
But didn't you want to keep me from dying, didn't you?
Didn’t you want to keep me alive? Alive
Alive
Alive like I was, like I was alive
[Verse 2]
I raised my hand to strike the bitter side
Of the face that troubled all of my mind
But when he turned back from the strike, the face was mine
[Chorus]
But didn't you want to keep me from dying, didn't you?
Didn't you want to keep me alivе? Alive, alive
Alive
Alivе like I was, like I was alive
[Outro]
And didn't you want to keep it from dying
Didn't you want to keep it from dying
