blood in the sink there is no rival
but clean white sheets
to your friends in the bible
if you wash your face make it red
take off your socks before you get in bed
it's not the day it's night that i dread thinking
not this time not this way
as a hot bullet rattles in your empty head
not this time not this way
you're maybe going to lose you life to-day

kiss me now or never again
brush your hair then count to ten
beige bath towel a fountain pen
and folding chairs and some vitamins
what will you say when it all begins?
not this time not this way
as a hot bullet rattles in your empty head
not this time not this way
you're going to maybe make me mad to-day

i can see the strain in your eyeballs now
as you cross the room take a bow
sorry it just won't work out somehow
a few more minutes the time allows
your naked legs it's this night that i dread screaming
not this time not this way
as a hot bullet rattles in your empty head
not this time not this way
you're maybe going to lose your life to-day
