You took the news like a good zombie should
The old man's blues fell on you with a shiver
It was far too late to react in any other way
You knew you were getting let go just not today

They found you outdoors
Running with the unfortunates
Now they're sending you back
To your black hearted ways

I understand you had to seize it
The young one chooses to bleed it like a river
The sun was up and gone by the time you killed desire
It was time to trade the land for steady water

They found you outdoors
Running with the unfortunates
Now they're sending you back
To your black hearted ways

I can't remember whose fault it really was
But you found comfort when I said it was mine
I suppose you made that bed on the day that you decided

They'd find you outdoors
Running with the unfortunates
Now they're sending you back
To your black hearted ways

They found you outdoors
Running with the unfortunates
Now they're sending you back
To your black hearted ways

They're sending you back
To your black hearted ways
Sending you back
To your black hearted ways
