Deathwish

She likes to cut herself

Until she doesn't recognize her face in the mirror

She's walking evidence

As the scene of the crime, she sees hollow and

Belligerent witness



You belong right here baby, sitting in the electric chair

We'll flip the switches that take you to your burning home

A haunted castle of brimstone

I know you got a deathwish honey, protruding like a broken bone

Shot from a cannon, gliding on the dance floor

Smelling of menthols and coppertone



Heartbreak in the whites of your eyes

With pupils bleeding as you cry

Sirens scream at the moonlight

Because the wolf is on the loose tonight



Everyone's trying to live forever

But you've got your own agenda

That's what I like about you

You might not be here tomorrow



Through the champagne glass your face looks like a violent mime

Behind the prison bars your last meal is a bitter pill

One foot in the grave, and your head inside the lion's mouth



Time keeps on ticking

They keep on laughing at you, laughing at you
