I Missed the Mark - Steve Ward

I broke into her house, saw her sittin' there Drinking coke and whiskey in her bra and underwear I saw him in the kitchen, hangin' up the phone I asked him nicely once to pack his things and go He gave her a firm, reassuring look that said he wouldn't leave But I asked him one more time and this time pulled out my shiv I struck him in the back and I pulled it out slow and I watched him fall down And as the morning sun rose he looked at me and said "You missed my heart, you missed my heart You got me good, I knew you would But you missed my heart, you missed my heart" Were his last words before he died Looking out the window, up at the blue sky Listening to her scream, listening to her cry A feeling of relief came over my soul I couldn't take it any longer and I lost control I chased her up the stairs and I pinned her to the ground And underneath her whimpering I could hear the sirens sound I rattled off a list of everything I missed Like going to the movies with her and the way she kissed me Driving into Downtown Wheeling, showing her off Backyard barbecues and reunions in the park I said I missed her skin and she started laughing And while I clenched down on her wrist She said, "That's quite a list but there's one thing you missed" You missed my heart, you missed my heart That's quite a list, but what you really missed You missed my heart, you missed my heart That's quite a list, but what you really missed Running through the parking lot, running through the fields Policemen on my back, something hit my skull and cracked They dragged me off to jail, set a million dollar bail Where I tried to tie a noose, but I failed and I broke loose We're racing through the prison yard, shot down by a tower guard He got me in the shins and he got me in the arms They strapped me in the gurney, took me to the infirmary Where the priest read my last rites and just before everything went dark I said, he missed my heart, he missed my heart He got me good, I knew he would But he missed my heart, he missed my heart And just before everything went dark The most poetic dream came flowing like the sea Lay in there my life but draining out of me A childhood scene then sky moon beams Fishing with my friends, sitting in the wild lands Watching the Ohio river flow at night Waiting for the bullhead catfishes to bite Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyard Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyard Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyard
