Sister, I'm not much a poet but a criminal
And you never had a chance
Love it or leave it, you can't understand
A pretty face but you do so carry on
And on and onI wouldn't front the scene if you payed me
I'm just the way that the doctor made me
On and on and on and on
Love it is as red as the rose on your coffin door
What's life like bleedin' on the floor?
The floor, the floorYou'll never make me leave
I wear this on my sleeve
Give me a reason to believeSo give me all your poison
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless thoughts
That make me illYou're runnin' after somethin'
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
Then fire at willPreach all you want but who's gonna save me?
I keep a gun on the book that you gave me
Hallelujah, lock and load
Black is the kiss, the touch of the serpent sun
Beneath the mark of the scar that makes you run
And run and run and runYou'll never make me leave
I wear this on my sleeve
Give me a reason to believeSo give me all your poison
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless thoughts
That make me illYou're runnin' after somethin'
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
Then fire at willYou'll never make me leave
I wear this on my sleeve
You wanna follow somethin'
Give me a better cause to lead
Just give me what I need
Give me a reason to believeSo give me all your poison
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless thoughts
That make me illYou're runnin' after somethin'
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
Then fire at willSo give me all your poison
(Fire at will)
And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless thoughts
(Fire at will)
That make me illYou're runnin' after something
(Fire at will)
That you'll never kill
If this is what you want
(Fire at will)
Then fire at will
