Well the gloom girl sank her teeth into the backbone of the night
Yeah she pa**ed to me the sweetest tea, the Colorado kind
And her breath filled up the back room where the lonesome man was lost
They've sat and tried a thousand times to make her clothes come off
Oh but this time the walls twisted and I found myself entwined
With the gloom girl, true, she sang her blues in the depths of our sweet high
Said I need a friend, I need a fix and I need to know it's you
But I feel like leavin' every season, every changing of the moon
Oh, gloom girl, deadly delicate
Drag hard just for the hell of it
I know but I don't
Feel right when you come around
Lips sealed, eyes glued to solid ground
I know, it's a sad show
But I'll try next time she sees me
To drink her venom dry
And I'll always make it easy
For the ones like her to leave me far behind
Oh, the ones like her to leave you far behind
Now some artist paints a portrait of her flower girl back East
Well, she talks in tongues, she bides her time and waits for that one beast
Of her love to track her footsteps, 'cross the world and through the dark
To taste your scream, to hear your blood, to rip you all apart
But out here on the West Coast where the boats pa** through all day
There's a bus stop girl, her hair it curls and it falls into her face
And the wind it blew her black dress and her eyes they blew my mind
But just like you, her bus rolled through and it had no name, it had no time
Oh, gloom girl, deadly delicate
Split town just for the hell of it
I know but I don't
See your digits anymore
Spin coins across the kitchen floor
I know it's a sad show
But I'll try next time I see you
To tame my wicked tooth
And I'll always make it easy
For the ones like her that never see you through
