| So I’m sitting here with ghosts again some are women mostly men
|
| Telling me of times they have had
|
| And I’m fantasizing about a hole in the ground
|
| How and where I’m gonna lay myself down and still die at 27 like we planned
|
| Then she saw the look in my eyes
|
| And began to sing a song I won’t describe
|
| «In another life we’ll be king and queen you and I»
|
| Then she told me devil don’t cry
|
| Devil don’t cry
|
| I know things get tough and sometimes you wanna die
|
| But «God needs an enemy and I need a guy»
|
| And she told me devil don’t cry
|
| At least not tonight
|
| And I’m sitting alone again
|
| All my friends are with their friends
|
| Thinking of times we have had
|
| And I’m fantasizing about a hole in the ground
|
| How and where I’m gonna lay myself down and I find a knife in my hand
|
| Then she saw the look in my eyes
|
| And began to sing a song I won’t describe
|
| «In another life we’ll be king and queen you and I»
|
| Then she told me devil don’t cry
|
| Tonight let’s pretend I’m a man
|
| And you’re a woman and we’re human just bones and this skin
|
| And I’ll pretend that your touch makes everything right
|
| If you pretend you’re not nervous that I’ve taken lives… |
