Vigilantes Of Love - Driving The Nails lyrics

Turn down the light placate the drunk k** the telephone I don't wanna sit this one out And have you rape me later on Now ladies and gentlemen I used to be a notorious k**er And then I became the world's greatest dancer Always asking what the truth was And never waiting for an answer Now it's the clay inside this heart of stone And the concrete in my head I know there's a fine line Between the living and the dead And I used to go to slasher films And leave feeling pretty free It's really quite cathartic To see yourself up on the screen and I've been driving the nails Firmly in your tree You've been talking to your Father On behalf of me Nothing at these check points I care to defend So why do I raise the hammer up And drive the nails again Now in the graveyard of my secrets There's a hope buried beneath All this talk of peace and righteousness Has left me weary beyond belief And there's an unwanted mistress In my bed late at night She say "I know you're a criminal You been on d**h row all your life" Turn out the lights and reconnect the phones Fill the drunk's gla** to the brink I'm ready for penetration honey But it's not what you think You gotta fill this stinking shell Of false humanity Fill it up with bullet holes From your firing squad of mercy
