I Never Told You What I Do For A Living
Stay out of the lightOr the photographs that I gave youYou can say a prayer if you need toOr just get in line and I’ll grieve youCan I meet you, alone?
Another night and I’ll see youAnother night and I’ll be youSome other way to continueTo hide my face
Another knife in my handsA stain that never comes off the sheetsClean me off...I'm so dirty, babe!The kind of dirtyWhere the water never cleans off the clothesI keep a book of the names and those
Only go so far to bury themSo deep and down we go
Touched by angels though, I fall out of graceI did it all so maybe I’d live this everyday
Another knife in my handsA stain that never comes off the sheetsClean me off...I’m so dirty, babe!
It ain't the moneyAnd it sure as hell ain't just for the fameIt’s for the bodies I claim and those
Only go so far to bury themSo deep and down we go
DownAnd down we goAnd down we goAnd down we goAnd we all fall down
I tried, I tried
And we'll all dance alone to the tune of your deathWe’ll love again, we'll laugh againAnd it's better off this way
And never again, and never againThey gave us two shots to the back of the headAnd we're all dead now
Well never again, and never againThey gave us two shots to the back of the headAnd we're all dead now
I tried, one more night, one more nightWell I’m laughing', crying', laughing'I tried, well I tried, well I triedCause I tried, but I liedI tried, I tried, I tried
And we'll love again and we'll laugh againWe’ll cry again and we'll dance againAnd it's better off this waySo much better off this wayI can't clean the blood off the sheets in my bed
Never again, and never againThey gave us two shots to the back of the headAnd we're all dead now
