I Never Told You What I do For A Living

Stay out of the lightOr the photographs that I gave youYou can say a prayer if you need toOr just get in line and I'll grieve youCan I meet you, aloneAnother night and I'll see youAnother night and I'll be youSome other way to continueTo hide my faceAnother knife in my handsA stain that never comes off the sheetsClean me offI'm so dirty, babeThe kind of dirtyWhere the water never cleans off the clothesI keep a book of the names and thoseOnly go so far to bury themSo deep and down we goTouched by angels though, I fall out of graceI did it all so maybe I'd live this everydayAnother knife in my handsA stain that never comes off the sheetsClean me offI'm so dirty, babeIt ain't the moneyAnd it sure as hell ain't just for the fameIt's for the bodies I claim and thoseOnly go so far to bury themSo deep and down we goDownAnd down we goAnd down we goAnd down we goAnd we all fall downAnd we'll all dance alone to the tune of your deathWe'll love again, we'll laugh againAnd it's better off this wayAnd never again, and never againThey gave us two shots to the back of the headAnd we're all dead nowWell never again, and never againThey gave us two shots to the back of the headAnd we're all dead nowI tried, one more night, one more nightWell I'm laughing', crying', laughing'I tried, well I tried, well I triedCause I tried, but I liedI tried, I tried, I triedAnd we'll love again and we'll laugh againWe'll cry again and we'll dance againAnd it's better off this waySo much better off this wayI can't clean the blood off the sheets in my bedNever again, and never againThey gave us two shots to the back of the headAnd we're all dead now
