Lyrics

Stay out of the light
Or the photograph that I gave you
You can say a prayer if you need to
Or just get in line and I'll grieve you
Count me too
Alone?
Another night and I'll see you
Another night and I'll be you
Some other way to continue
To hide my face

Another knife in my hands
A stain that never comes off
The sheets
Clean me off
I'm so dirty babe!
The kind of dirty where the water never cleans off the clothes
I keep a book of the names and those

Only go so far
'Til you bury them
So deep and down we go

Touched by angels
Though I fall out of grace
I did it all so maybe
I'd live this everyday

Another knife in my hands
A stain that never comes off
The sheets
Clean me off
I'm so dirty babe!
It ain't the money and it sure as hell ain't just for the fame
It's for the bodies I claim and those

Only go so far
'Til you bury them
So deep and down we go!

Down..
And down we go
And down we go
And down we go
And we all, fall, down
I tried!
I tried!

And we'll all dance alone
To the tune of your death
We'll love again
We'll laugh again
And it's better off this way..

And never again
And never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
And we're all dead now..

Well never again
And never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
And we're all dead now..

I tried
One more night
One more night
We'll all
Laugh out
Cry out
Laugh out loud!

I tried
Well I tried
Well I tried
'Cause I tried
But I lied
But i..

I tried
I tried
I tried..

And we'll love again
We'll laugh again
We'll cry again
And we'll dance again
And it's better off this way
So much better off this way
I can't clean the blood off the sheets in my bed!

And never again
And never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
And we're all dead now..
