God Damn

God damn

She says "A minute from now, I'll be dead, I'll be dead"
He says "A minute from now, I won't mind"
It takes a minute or ten for her to hear what he said
But by then there's no meaning to find

I will love you forever
The wolf says to the sheep
But when we're not together
It's a promise she can't keep

God damn

She says "In twenty-five years, you'll move on, you'll move on"
But she's talking to a shadow that has already gone
Though he left with no excuses, just the scars to tell
How a man becomes accustomed to the comforts of his hell

God damn

She says "A minute from now, I'll be dead, I'll be dead
You'll be talking to a hole in the back of my head"
Like a threat were a kiss that can melt all the past
But it's ugly and hollow and it will be your last

God damn
