Why would you marry me?
Or was it for our families?
(We share a bed at their feet.)
And the nights, that we dwell on these fights,
And we punish our son for the times that we've lied.
And you deafen the chior, you bed-ridden whore.
And you spit on my motions as if they were yours.
I'm aware you're in need, and you're counting on me.
WHY WASTE LIVING ON THE LIKES OF ME?
SAVE CONSCIENCE FOR THE SLAUGHTERED SHEEP!
Well, I've been meanin', to give you a reason.
The stones in hand will block out the sun.
(They'll cleanse our sins just for fun!)
Well, you've been sleepin', I'm wide awake dreamin'.
WHEN MY LOVER'S TOUCH HAS FADED,
AND I WAKE UP, SHE'S NOT NEXT TO ME.
I'M ALIVE, I'M UNWELL, MAYBE HEADING TO HELL.
I'M ALIVE, BUT UNWELL, AND I SURE DESERVE HELL.
I'M ALIVE, AND A LIE, SUCH A LIE, IT'S A LIE...
IT'S A LIE!
Well, I've been meanin', to give you a reason.
The stones in hand will block out the sun.
(They'll cleanse our sins just for fun!)
Well, you've been sleepin', I'm wide awake dreamin'.

Well, you've been sleepin', I'm wide awake dreamin'.
WHEN MY LOVER'S TOUCH HAS FADED,
AND I WAKE UP, SHE'S NOT NEXT TO ME.
In the backseat, you can find me,
With my lover, just a crutch for the night.
Her heart flutters, at the drop of a dime.
And when the night is young, I've had my fun,
I'll hold her far and tight!
