SILVERLAKE 6571

The forecast said
It would be sunny
I guess they got it wrong
It's raining again in Silverlake
And I need to hear my song
The one that puts me in the mood
To spill my guts
And talk to you
Saves me from my self-inflicted
Worry when I do
Oh, you're asleep right now
But I'm still wide awake
It's hard for me to close my eyes
Without no pill to take
I think of all the times I tried
The nights I dreamed I'd died
Help me feel alive again
Cause I'm so dead inside

Well, I'm a liar
And you're my saint
It feels so good
Being the one they hate
And I'm a sinner
So let's all pray
I wouldn't want it any other way

Well, have you heard the news
I've got a blue bruise on my hip
The truth can be a brutal business
I just need a kiss
Someone to tape my wrists
I think that I'm about to bleed
But I know it's not up to you
To give me what I need
Oh, you're awake right now
So I must be asleep
It seems I've got a secret
That I ain't afraid to keep
I think of all the times I tried
To tell you how I feel
But it's so hard to mend my wounds
That just refuse to heal

Well, I'm a liar
And you're my saint
It feels so good
Being the one they hate
And I'm a sinner
So let's all pray
I wouldn't want it any other way

Take me back
Let's go back
It's so dark here
It's so black
Exquisite with stillness
The fragrance of flesh
The taste of revenge
And my wounds
Are still fresh
Now here she comes
With her bloody red lips
Funeral-white skin
And her generous hips
Drenched in the scent of
Romance like no other
She's so filthy gorgeous
That death has become her

Well, I'm a liar
And you're a saint
It feels so good
Being the one they hate
And I'm a sinner
So let's all pray
I wouldn't want it any other way
