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
