She took the cigarettes
and all the coke
and left me here
an addict broke
She had the cash
to pay our rent
she even found my secret stash
now my money's all been spent
And here I am
In need of a revival
All she left was her Bible
So Lord, Lord, I'm on my knees for you
She took the furniture too
I never thought our love would fade
True, I've always been one to doubt
But I had her figured out
I never thought our love would fade
I'm stabbed by an unseen blade
She took my confidence
She took my pride
Took my innocence
She took me by surprise
So here I am
I'm ready for my revival
Cause all she left was her Bible
So Lord, Lord, I'm on my knees for you
She took the furniture too
I never thought our love would fade
True, I've always been one to doubt
But I had her figured out
I never thought our love would fade
I'm stabbed by an unseen blade
Sure, I know we needed a tune-up
but I could still hear the engine humming
With the knife still in my back
I never saw this one coming
The new single from ako takes a decidedly woozy take on club music, with dreamy vaporware aesthetics and a deliciously laconic beat. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 29, 2022
