Over My Dead Body

(album: The Dark - 1986)

No matter what you say
You're gotta make it through the day
You know you will, you know you will
Just call the doctor on the phone
Tell 'em you can't make it all alone
Gotta get your fix

So climb aboard your scarlet ship
Stars are brightly dancing in your eyes
Keep chasing all your dreams
You know they're just a pack of lies

The sands of time are running out
You know this god ain't got a doubt
He's gonna get your soul
Gonna get your soul
Driving hard and living fast
You know your life ain't worth a line of blast
Laid on the mirror

So climb aboard your scarlet ship
Stars are brightly dancing in your eyes
Keep chasing all your dreams
You know they're just a pack of lies

Push the needle in your vein
Ya laugh and shout that you're insane
You wanna die, you're gonna try
Racing down the open road
On your mind's heavy load of pain
What will you gain?

So climb aboard your scarlet ship
Stars are brightly dancing in your eyes
Keep chasing all your dreams
You know they're just a pack of lies

Just a pack of lies
Try, try, try, you're gonna try
Lie, lie, lie, you know they're lies!
Die, die, die, you're gonna die!
