Gov't Mule - Wine And Blood Lyrics
Desiree's in disarray waiting for her angels to come
Where she used to feel the weight of a thousand lifetimes
Now she just feels numb
But there was a time when her beauty raised the eyebrows of the town
Any man would gladly give up all he had just to take Desiree down
She stares out the window at the world passing by
She is caught beneath the wheel
Too heavy to lift - she feels too weak to try
People stare like strangers where once she might've asked them in
To fill the void where her heart once was
Now she just fills her glass again
And again
And she walks the floor less traveled
Thinks of a sad melody
Now they just make a memory
Too many years trying to do the right thing for the wrong man
Now the picture is clear
She drinks and she cries and she hides from the past
'Cause the truth is more bitter than the tears
All these half-truths and alibis help build a wall of denial
She takes comfort in the night - darkness blocks the light
From falling on her aging smile
Grey befalls her halo where there once was a golden mane
And her eyes don't shine like they used to
Without the moon, the sun would be in vain
So she walks the floor less traveled
Thinks of a sad melody
Wine and blood don't mix like they used to
Now they just make a memory
Too many years trying to the right thing for the wrong man
Now the picture is clear
She drinks and she cries and she hides from the past
'Cause the truth is more bitter than the tears
She puts on h er make-up - though no one's seen her for days
Her silence is a lonely cry
She's trapped inside a maze
Her tears have turned to honey, drawing the black flies of depression
Desiree's in disarray waiting for her angels again

Gov't Mule Wine And Blood Comments
This a country song. A sad country song.
Is this song about a "church" trying to do the right thing for the wrong man (not human)? I think it is.......
It's not about some drunk, depressed woman.
Man, pot is a lot stronger than it used to be. *smh*
I AM DESIREE! This is my song!! Every single word is so true!!!
fucking bittersweet! Would love to meet whoever wrote this soundtrack of my life !
This is a great album, I love this song. So many good ones on this album. But, I have to say that I don't care much for Gov't Mule in concert. I have seen them twice, and both times their performance just fell flat for me. And the second show I went to was at the famous Red Rocks Amphitheater, out here in Colorado. The music was fine, but there is just no energy, and Warren doesn't seem too personable. He sure doesn't amp up the crowd, by any means...
Jason Lindgren you saw the wrong shows bud. I've met Warren twice and it was easier than talking to my old man.
Warren is a drug addict bro. I met him in iowa in 2014. His eyes are always yellow no different than a junkie. He loves his silver coke spoon. BTW, this song is all about the christian church.
@matty minshew you're an idiot. Warren is an addict. His shows have always been garbage. Yoi must be an addict as well. Junkie fuckface.
Spicy Chicken Marsala Cucumber Salad w/ Pico Bobbit you're a shitbag. You've never met Warren,you've never been to a show..you are a Bible humping bag of shit.
Following Waterloo an old head informed me of the secret Tradewinds show. It was an Epic Honor to stand directly in front of Douglas Allen Woody for the whole set with my friend. The heartbreaking news was only a week later. Thank You for all the Amazing Shows Allen , Warren & Matt. From your beautiful ballads to the heaviest Raw, The power Trio will always remain vivid . Joe
