Helena Long ago Just like the hearse you die to get in again We are so far from you Burning on just like a match you strike to incinerate The lives of everyone you know And what's the worst you take (worst you take) from every heart you break (heart you break) And like the blade you stain (blade you stain) Well I've been holding on tonight What's the worst that I can say? Things are better if I stay So long and good night So long not good night Came a time When every star fall brought you to tears again We are the very hurt you sold And what's the worst you take (worst you take) from every heart you break (heart you break) And like the blade you stain (blade you stain) Well I've been holding on tonight What's the worst that I can say? Things are better if I stay So long and good night So long not good night And if you carry on this way Things are better if I stay So long and good night So long not good night Can you hear me? Are you near me? Can we pretend to leave and then We'll meet again When both our cars collide? What's the worst that I can say? Things are better if I stay So long and good night So long not good night And if you carry on this way Things are better if I stay So long and good night So long not good night Give ’Em Hell,Kid Oh baby here comes the sound! I took a train outta New Orleans and they shot me full of ephedrine This is how we like to do it in the murder scene Can we settle up the score? If you were here I'd never have a fear So go on live your life But I miss you more than I did yesterday You're beautiful Well I'm a total wreck and almost every day Like the firing squad or the mess you made Well don't I look pretty walking down the street In the best damn dress I own? If you were here I'd never have a fear So go on live your life But I miss you more than I did yesterday You're so far away So c'mon show me how 'Cause I mean this more than words can ever say Some might say we are made from the sharpest things you say We are young and we don't care Your dreams and your hopeless hair We never wanted it to be this way For all our lives Do you care at all? If you were here I'd never have a fear So go on live your life But I miss you more than I did yesterday You're so far away So c'mon show me how 'Cause I mean this more than words can ever say (Won't you tell me?) (Well, there's no way I'm kissing that guy) To The End He calls the mansion not a house but a tomb He's always choking from the stench and the fume The wedding party all collapsed in the room So send my resignation to the bride and the groom Let's go down! This elevator only goes up to ten He's not around He's always looking at men Down by the pool He doesn't have many friends As they are Face down and bloated snap a shot with the lens If you marry me Would you bury me? Would you carry me to the end? (So say goodbye) to the vows you take (And say goodbye) to the life you make (And say goodbye) to the heart you break And all the cyanide you drank She keeps a picture of the body she lends Got nasty blisters from the money she spends She's got a life of her own and it shows by the Benz She drives at 90 by the Barbies and Kens If you ever say never too late I'll forget all the diamonds you ate Lost in coma and covered in cake Increase the medication Share the vows at the wake (Kiss the bride) If you marry me Would you bury me? Would you carry me to the end? (So say goodbye) to the vows you take (And say goodbye) to the life you make (And say goodbye) to the heart you break And all the cyanide you drank (And say goodbye) to the last parade (And walk away) from the choice you made (And say goodnight) to the hearts you break And all the cyanide you drank (So say goodbye) to the vows you take (And say goodbye) to the life you make (And say goodbye) to the hearts you break And all the cyanide you drank (And say goodbye) to the last parade (And walk away) from the choice you made (And say goodnight) to the hearts you break And all the cyanide you drank To the last parade When the parties fade And the choice you made To the End You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison In the middle of a gun fight.. In the center of a restaurant.. They say, "Come with your arms raised high!" Well, they're never gonna get me And like a bullet through a flock of doves..

Alright Give up Get down. It's just the hardest part of living Alright She wants It all to come down this time Lost in the prescription she's got something else in mind (something else in mind) Check into the Hotel Bella Muerte It gives the weak flight It gives the blind sight Until the cops come Or by the last light And for the last night I lie Could I lie next to you?

Well here's your answer in spades Shotgun sinners Wild eyed jokers Got you in my sights Gun it while i'm holding on After all is said and done Climb out from the pine box Well I'm asking you 'Cause she's got nothing to say The angels just cut out her tongue Call her black Mariah Would I lie to you?

Do you remember that day when we met You told me this gets harder Well it did! Been holding on forever, Promise me that when I'm gone you'll kill my enemies, The damage you've inflicted temporary wounds I'm coming back from the dead and I'll take you home with me I'm taking back the life you stole We never got that far, This helps me to think all through the night Bright lights that, won't kill me now, or tell me how Just you and I, your starless eyes remain. Hip Hip Hooray for me, you talk to me, but would you kill me in my sleep Lay still like the dead From the razor to the rosary We could lose ourselves And paint these walls in pitchfork red I will avenge my ghost with every breath I take I'm coming back from the dead and I'll take you home with me I'm taking back the life you stole This hole that you put me in Wasn't deep enough And I'm climbing out right now You're running out of places to hide from me When you go Just know that I will remember you If living was the hardest part We'll then one day be together And in the end we'll fall apart Just as the leaves changing colors And then I will be with you I will be there one last time now When you go Cementery Drive This night, walk the dead In a solitary style And crash the cemetery gates In the dress your husband hates Way down, mark the grave Where the search lights find us Drinking by the mausoleum door And they found you on the bathroom floor I miss you, i miss you so far And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard Back home, off the run Singing songs that make you slit your wrists It isn't that much fun, staring down a loaded gun So i won't stop dying, won't stop lying If you want i'll keep on crying Did you get what you deserve? Is this what you always want me for? I miss you, i miss you so far And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard Way down, way down Way down, way down Way down, way down Way down, way down I miss you, i miss you so far And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard I miss you, i miss you so far And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard Made it so hard Way down, way down Way down, way down Way down, way down Way down, way down I Never Told You What I Do For A Living Stay out of the light Or the photographs that I gave you You can say a prayer if you need to Or just get in line and I'll grieve you Can I meet you, 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 goes 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 every day 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 lose Only goes 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 Well I tried One more night One more night well I'm laughin', cryin', laughin' I tried, well I tried, well I tried 'Cause I tried, but I lied I lied I tried I tried I tried And we'll love again and 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
