Outside of Town
Eternal Sorrow and Wicked Love: The Geraldine Fibbers' Poetic Tale
Lyrics
I'm drownded in sorrow, I'm drownded in scorn.
I am overwhelmed with sorrow and disdain.
I knew I'd end this way since the day I was born.
I anticipated this ending for myself from the day of my birth.
I never learnt nothing 'cept hunger and fear.
I gained no knowledge except for experiencing hunger and fear.
And the love that you gave me was lies to keep me near.
The love you showed me was deceitful, aimed at keeping me close.
In a field of new grass you first lay me down.
You first laid me down in a field of new grass.
I met you there daily just outside of town.
We regularly met just outside of town.
A fool I have lived and a fool I will die,
I have lived foolishly, and I will die foolishly.
But you'll go to the devil for making me cry.
But you will face consequences for making me cry.
You smile so sweetly," my momma would say,
You appear sweet, as my mother would say, but you are wicked.
But you're wicked my little girl.
You, my little girl, possess a malevolent nature.
When death comes to heaven you never will go.
When death comes to heaven, you won't be accepted there.
Till then, I will love you, till then.
Until then, I will love you.
Till then, I will love you, till then."
-Your hands they offend me, they pull me apart.
Your hands cause me distress, tearing me apart.
Your eyes they can burn a hole right through my heart.
Your eyes have the power to deeply wound my heart.
I'm ruined for love and I'm ruined for life,
I am ruined for love and for life.
I'll never be nothing, I'm ready to go.
I will never amount to anything, and I'm ready to go.
I'm damned for sure, and I know that I'm lost,
I am undoubtedly damned and lost.
But I'll take my revenge whatever the cost.
Despite that, I will seek revenge at any cost.
Please tell the angels to turn their pretty heads,
Ask the angels to avert their gaze.
I can bare them to see me when I kill you dead.
I can bear them witnessing when I fatally harm you.
You smile so sweetly," my mama would say,
You seem sweet, as my mother would say, but you are wicked.
But you're wicked my little girl.
You, my little girl, possess a malevolent nature.
When death comes to heaven you never will go.
When death comes to heaven, you won't be accepted there.
Till then, I will love you, till then.
Until then, I will love you.
Till then, I will love you, till then."
-Please tell my mama, my heart it was broke
Inform my mother that my heart was broken.
At a very young age, of this we never spoke.
From a young age, we never discussed this pain.
Tell her the man she loves is going cold in the ground,
Let her know the man she loves is becoming cold in the ground.
And her only baby is hangin' outside of town.
Her only child is hanging outside of town.
You smile so sweetly," my mama would say,
You seem sweet, as my mother would say, but you are wicked.
But you're wicked my little girl.
You, my little girl, possess a malevolent nature.
When death comes to heaven you never will go.
When death comes to heaven, you won't be accepted there.
Till then, I will love you, till then.
Until then, I will love you.
Till then, I will love you, till then.
-Till then, I will love you, till then.
