JESUS COULD HAVE SAVED ME
It's a tragic scene of drudgery
shirt and tie like a noose around his neck
still stoned from crawling home this morning
life's an anticlimax without a warning
thank fuck for that sacred place last night
sweat dripping walls
the heaving chest of a church for pilgrims
black heavy metal t-shirts, indie, punk, emo, goth, rock, whatever they want to call it
it's all the same to us
theres only good and bad
and that's
a matter of opinion
but it's our life blood
if it wasn't for music I would dye
my hair grey and jump head first
into my grave
I am not
you are not
we are not slaves
Jesus could've saved me.......
if he'd played guitar
LOVE KILLS SLOWLY
Love kills slowly and unkindly
Love kills slowly, you could have told me
Love kills slowly, creeps its fingers round your throat
Love kills slowly, conceals its weapon in its coat.
I found the answer
On my shoe
What has become
Of me and you
I had the future
In my hand
Then I handed
It to you
I'm outside
Of time again
I don't know
What's mine again
All living things
Belong to you
Mine are broken
Now and few
Love kills slowly
It's not a plane, car or train wreck
Love kills slowly
Slow motion hijack
Tell me again, tell me again, tell me again
Why does it end, why does it end,
Why does it end?
Never again, never again, never again.
I need a friend, I need a friend,
I just need a friend....
Where there was beauty
Now is shame
Where once stood comfort
Now lies pain
With her arms crossed
Over her chest
Knees pulled in
Head a mess
Should we cling
To what is left
Or let our love
In pieces rest
This is a song
About our decline
Of what once was yours and mine
Love kills slowly
It's not a plane, car or train wreck
Love kills slowly
Slow motion hijack
Tell me again, tell me again, tell me again
Why does it end, why does it end,
Why does it end?
Never again, never again, never again.
I need a friend, I need a friend,
I just need a friend....
