Lyrics
Your manifest read idle wild by Mississippi way
Upbound from the Delta mouth
For ten and some odd days
None of us saw ya coming
But then all, all of a sudden
The behemoth of your begging heart was there then it was gone
You were smilin’
You seemed fine
None of us could see behind
Your oxidizing lies
Oh my love my love
Oh my love is gone away
The sextant measured Bellatrix by Betelgeuse’s way
40 tons of methadone and trending toward decay
The sickness you smuggled through
Doldrums and dismay
Dead reckoning and mystery
You left us in your wake
