Down down, you bring me down I hear you knocking at my door and I can't sleep at night Your face, it has no place No room for you inside my house I need to be alone
Don't waste your words I don't need anything from you I don't care where you've been or what you plan to do
Turn turn, I wish you'd learn There's a time and place for everything I've got to get it through Cut loose, you're no use I couldn't stand another second in your company
Don't waste your words I don't need anything from you I don't care where you've been or what you plan to do
Stone me, why can't you see You're a no-one nowhere washed up baby who'd look better dead
Your tongue is far too long I don't like the way it sucks and slurps upon my every word
Don't waste your words I don't need anything from you I don't care where you've been or what you plan to do
I am the resurrection and I am the light I couldn't ever bring myself to hate you as I'd like
I am the resurrection and I am the light I couldn't ever bring myself to hate you as I'd like

I've seen your severed head at a banquet for the dead All dressed up dinner, looked so fine Your shining silver salver so tastefully powdered With the finest military quick lime Now try and picture this, as I gave you a kiss The apple in your mouth slipped in mine The orchestra played the sweetest serenade We laughed as we put away your wine So raise your glasses, here's a toast to wasted lives May all their ghosts come back to haunt you And tell you how they died How do you sleep? How do you last the night and keep the dogs at bay? How do you feel when you close your eyes, and try and drift away? Does it feel any better now? Does it mean any more when the angel of death comes knock, knocking, And banging at your door? When all the fun was over, I put you on my shoulder took you home, away from it all Shot down and claimed, mounted and framed Tastefully hung up on my wall Are my dreams your nightmares? I hope they all come true Get off your knees, the party's over I'm coming home to you How do you sleep? How do you last the night and keep the dogs at bay? How do you feel when you close your eyes, and try and drift away? Does it feel any better now? Does it mean any more when the angel of death comes knock, knocking, And banging at your door, at your door?
