She said, "God is dead," and took a long, slow sip
I used to love the smell of scotch and Nietzsche on her lips
When things got good, she'd be the first to go
Should have seen the pileup coming all those years ago
It was something in the way she moved her hips
And that unrepentant timbre and her soft eclipse
She had me beggin' for a bite 'fore the fruit was ripe
And a thousand-yard stare that fit my vision just right
It was cold May night about a decade back
When the neighbors called the cops 'fore I drank my six-pack
Josie's toys made him pause 'fore he walked me outside
Sobered up an hour later, sick and tired
I found the test in the trash, such are vicious gifts
And her note in my book like a poet's fist
Didn't mean a thing then; doesn't mean a thing still
Just more haunted lost souls in the killing fields
She said, "It's not your fault," and left her key in the door
I felt the wounds tear open bleeding from our silent war
She didn't give me a name; didn't give a goddamn
Just left a trace of nothing and a blue sedan
