|
Babies were crying before you got here |
|
I believe they're crying still |
|
The world as we know, it keeps right on turning |
|
I guess it always will |
|
Still something's changed, I hate to admit it |
|
I ain't been the same since you came around |
|
My mind is swollen from the weariness |
|
Wish you'd never flagged me down |
|
Twisted angel cast out of some strange heaven |
|
Sent down here to pull me out of my shell |
|
You show up on my doorstep, honey dripping from your mouth |
|
Like some slackjaw jezebel |
|
Flesh and bones is all I'm made of |
|
I couldn't have stopped you if I tried |
|
Spell you were casting way too heavy |
|
Now I can't be satisfied |
|
But you think you're going to save me, you better think again |
|
I've had saviors galore |
|
And although you are a vision, an angel wrapped in sin |
|
I've seen it all before |
|
Twisted angel cast out of some strange heaven |
|
Sent down here, landed on my window still |
|
Now you're walking through my back door, honey dripping from your mouth |
|
Like some slackjaw jezebel |
|
You've got your bag of dust, your divining rod |
|
I wonder how I got myself here |
|
Wheel's spinning faster and I know I got to jump off |
|
I guess I'm weighing the fire against the fear |
|
You spoon-fed my ego, made me feel so young |
|
Kissed me 'til my lips were sore |
|
But I know you're just a jezebel with a poisonous tongue |
|
I've been down this road before |
|
It's full of twisted angels, cast out of some strange heaven |
|
Sent down here to put me through hell |
|
You show up on my doorstep, honey dripping from your mouth |
|
Like some slackjaw jezebel, oh, like some slackjaw jezebel |
