VIOLENCE

I was handcuffed to the brief case
I woke up with my memory erased
For a moment I thought we were safe
We can run all we want but we'll never escape this

Seems like I can never relax
We can try but you know it won't last
Eyes wide with my foot on the gas
Took the turn too wide and I couldn't correct it

Keep your secrets you might find that I know you better than you think
I'm stuck in your love
See you sharpening your fangs before you bite down
See you creep in like a spider crawls down your throat while you sleep

And it keeps on tumbling down

How can I tell you what I don't know?
I saw you wink through the cigarette smoke
I know you don't hesitate with your violence
Two dollar signs tattooed on your eyelids
How can I tell you what I don't know?
I saw you wink through the cigarette smoke
I know you don't hesitate with your violence
Two dollar signs tattooed on your eyelids

I was tripping I was faded off of love in a pill
I was revving up the engine I was gone at the wheel
You administer the venom then I'm floating away
I don't know what I was sipping there was something in my drink
I was going fitty five thru the cemetery gates
It was something on your mind it was all over your face
You were quiet and composed tell me what you got to say
Put the pedal to the floor as we narrowly escape

Keep your secrets you might find that I know you better than you think
I'm stuck in your love
See you sharpening your fangs before you bite down
See you creep in like a spider crawls down your throat while you sleep

And it keeps on tumbling down

How can I tell you what I don't know?
I saw you wink through the cigarette smoke
I know you don't hesitate with your violence
Two dollar signs tattooed on your eyelids
How can I tell you what I don't know?
I saw you wink through the cigarette smoke
I know you don't hesitate with your violence
Two dollar signs tattooed on your eyelids

Long slow deep breaths
Burning my chest
