Fallguy Video (MV)

Bars on the window, shadows on the floor,
I've been counting days, but I don't keep score.
They say I pulled the trigger, they say I made the call,
But I know the truth, I'm takin' the fall.
I'm the fallguy, for the love of my life,
Wearing these chains, I'm holdin' the knife.
She's out there somewhere, free as a bird,
I'll carry the weight, without sayin' a word.
I'm the fallguy, that's who I'll be,
Lock me away, she's the one free.
She had that look, fire in her eyes,
When they came knockin', I fed 'em the lies.
I stood there silent, as the gavel came down,
But her hands are clean, she's nowhere around.
I'm the fallguy, for the love of my life,
Wearing these chains, I'm holdin' the knife.
She's out there somewhere, free as a bird,
I'll carry the weight, without sayin' a word.
I'm the fallguy, that's who I'll be,
Lock me away, she's the one free.
They say love's blind, but I see it clear,
I'd rather rot here than lose her near.
She did what she had to, I don't blame her soul,
This cell's cold as hell, but it's where I'll grow old.
I hear her voice in the walls at night,
She's out in the world, livin' her life.
She don't know the pain, she won't know my cry,
I'll stay the fallguy 'til the day I die.
I'm the fallguy, for the love of my life,
Wearing these chains, I'm holdin' the knife.
She's out there somewhere, free as a bird,
I'll carry the weight, without sayin' a word.
I'm the fallguy, that's who I'll be,
Lock me away, she's the one free.
So lock me up, throw away the key,
The fallguy's here, just let her be.
In these prison walls, I'll keep her safe,
'Cause love's the crime that I embrace.
