I Sent You Up

Well I watched th fire in earnest
'cause I thought it would quell my pain
but the more that I saw you burnin',
the more I only felt the same.
So I sent you up, but the angels turned you down
And the Devil already had you,
so he turned you right back around.
So I put you on the canvas,
like a prison for all time
But I couldn't stand to see your face
sent chills along my spine
So I sent you up, but the angels turned you down
And the Devil already had you,
so he turned you right back around.
So I cut you into pieces
And I threw you in the river
Now the fishes they all curse me
for the poison I deliver.
So I sent you up, but the angels turned you down
And the Devil already had you,
so he turned you right back around.
Now your body's in the ocean
About nine hundred miles from home
and your life it never left you
it just wants to be alone.
So I sent you up, but the angels turned you down
And the Devil already had you,
so he turned you right back around.
