In Two (The Lament)

Jennifer Knapp

Finish up your coffee, love 
it's getting cold 
let's finish up this fight tonight 
before the sun draws neigh and I'm old 
 
Have mercy on me I'm a girl 
though I'm cruel and you cry 
I won't shiver cause I know how to break a man 
I know how to break a man in two 
 
Still you're suffering, my love 
o, who's to blame? 
you might be tired, but I'm not through fighting the flame 
 
o, by the tiding of my tounge 
I lie and sing what can't be unsung 
my soul torn in two by the things I say to you 
by the things that I say 
 
I know how to break us man, in two
