| Forget the letter just sleep sound tonight
|
| Pull back the covers without a fight
|
| But as we dance by emergency light
|
| I fail to swallow my tongue
|
| And I’m still here bleeding
|
| So pull this switch and see my body twitch
|
| Oh as we dance on this memory
|
| A light left blinking on it’s own
|
| And my blood is flowing
|
| Down through this machine
|
| In hope and desire
|
| In Hope I expire
|
| Turn off this machine
|
| 'Cause this is the only thing that’s keeping me alive
|
| Turn off this machine
|
| 'Cause this is the only thing that’s keeping me alive
|
| So pull this switch and see my body twitch
|
| Oh as we dance on this memory
|
| Despair has devoured me whole
|
| A seed won’t grow from this soul
|
| This pull won’t cure my disease
|
| Can’t you kill this bleeding heart
|
| Turn off this machine
|
| 'Cause this is the only thing that’s keeping me alive
|
| Turn off this machine
|
| 'Cause this is the only thing that’s keeping me alive
|
| Please nurse, my batteries are running low
|
| Please nurse, oh… Oh I think I’m running low
|
| Left here swallowed by this fear
|
| That you will always keep me here
|
| So close your eyes and pray for this to go away
|
| 'Cause I’m not angry, tired or sore
|
| More of a man than I was before
|
| Is this the cause I’m looking for?
|
| I plead forgive me
|
| 'Cause I’m no martyr
|
| Is this the cause I’m looking for?
|
| I plead forgive me
|
| 'Cause I’m no martyr
|
| Is this the cause I’m looking for?
|
| 'Cause I’m not angry, tired or sore
|
| More of a man than I was before
|
| Is this the cause I’m looking for?
|
| 'Cause I’m not angry, tired or sore
|
| More of a man than I was before
|
| Is this the cause I’m looking for?
|
| (Repeat until fade out)
|
| I plead forgive me
|
| 'Cause I’m no martyr
|
| You’re not the cause I’m looking for |
