Kinda silly but it makes me laugh when I think about it.I’ve fallen in love with a man on the run
#Civil wars lyrics devil backbone full
I'm now working on writing a full fledged novel and it's all thanks to this song. After listening to the lyrics, I felt a creative fire get lit under my ass and suddenly I had the perfect story to write about.
Normally, I would skip it but I was curious and took a chance with it. I was just listening to some music as usual and saw this song. I tried for hours thinking of ideas and I had plenty of success, but as soon as I started writing I would stop because I got stuck and hated what I wrote down. Recently, I started to try and write again but I just couldn't think of an interesting concept to make into a story.
I stopped writing after graduation due to me being burnt out with life and because I joined the military. I used to be a writer when I was in Highschool, I would write stories and poems and I soon discovered that I had a talent for it.
I just recently discovered this song randomly on YouTube and it has pushed me to do something with my life. Written by: CHARLIE PEACOCK, JOHN WHITE, JOY WILLIAMS Restating her request for divine intervention and protection on behalf of the man she loves to keep him safe and secure in her life. Reaffirming her plea or prayer to God to spare the man she loves from any harm or punishment. The man she loves is not perfect, but he's the only one she has, and she chooses to love him for who he is, rather than what he's done or what others think of him. He’s good and he’s bad and he’s all that I’ve got The artist loves the man regardless of his innocence or guilt, and that's all that matters to her. How many, how many Hail Marys is it gonna take?Ī rhetorical question alluding to the fact that her love may be seen as a sin, and wondering how many prayers or penances it would take to cleanse her soul.ĭon’t care if he’s guilty, don’t care if he’s not The singer is ready to take on the challenges and criticism that comes with loving an outlaw or criminal, and she will not be ashamed of her decision. I’ll shoulder the load, and I’ll swallow the shame The singer is willing to bear the consequences of her love, responsibility or involvement with the man she loves. The man she loves had no other alternative in pursuing his chosen path, and he had to endure tremendous hardship and difficulty. The man she loves was forced by circumstance or fate to take the path he did, and he couldn't have done anything differently. There wasn’t a wrong or a right he could choose The man she loves is faced with the challenge of providing for his family and risk getting hanged for his criminal activities. The man she loves is in a precarious position, between life and death, good and evil, and she's empathetic to his plight.Ī hangman’s knot, and three mouths to feed The artist wants to protect and care for him, and give him the peace and comfort of a secure and loving home. The man she loves is from a tough background, on the fringes or edge of society, and may have been exposed to, and involved in, criminal activities. He’s raised on the edge of the devil’s backbone The man she loves doesn't conform to societal or religious expectations, and she's unsure if that's the right thing to do. I’ve fallen for someone who’s nothing like you The artist is in a quandary, not knowing whether to follow her heart or to do what is socially or morally expected of her. Her prayer or plea to God not to let the man she loves get caught or taken out of her life in any possible way. The singer is either helpless or hopeless in her request, and all she can do is hope and pray that things work out for her and the man she loves. The singer has developed feelings for a man who is running from the law, and thus she's hoping nothing happens to him or to her as his accomplice. I’ve fallen in love with a man on the run Expressing the distress of the singer who has fallen in love with a man who is on the run, and she worries for her safety and prays for his capture.
