House Of Blue Ornaments
©Jerry Axson

I hang my heart upon a tattered sleeve,
no matter what you do to me I have to believe -
that it’s love...
(never give your heart to a girl like that -)
I’m in love...
(she’ll steal it all away and never, ever give it back...)

In your house of pain I left no forwarding address,
and this house of cards has just become a mess,

I’m broke down and bent from your slow torment -
no greater isolation than this house of blue ornaments...
in this house of blue ornaments...
yeah, yeah, yeah...

When I’m with you it’s like I’m buried alive,
there’s got to be someone out there who wants me inside -
(I wish I had a lover who was just like that -)
I’m alone...
(I’d hold her in my arms and never, ever give her back...)
so alone...

In your house of pain I left no forwarding address,
and this house of cards has just become a mess,

I’m broke down and bent from your slow torment -
extreme isolation in this house of blue ornaments...
in this house of blue ornaments...
yeah, yeah, yeah...

In your house of pain I left no forwarding address,
and this house of cards has just become a mess,

Oh - I’m broke down and bent from your slow, slow torment -
no retribution from this house of blue ornaments...
in this house of blue ornaments...3x
yeah, yeah, yeah...

about

Jerry Axson Columbia, South Carolina

To me simplicity is the root of all great thoughts. The secret thrill for me, the architect, is delivering that thought with unobtrusive complexity. Writing songs and composing music satisfy my soul and because of this I know exactly what I am designed to do, it’s just that simple. - Jerry Axson ... more
