Sweet Relief

Heavens above
I took a bullet for love
And now I can't get enough
Lead in my heart

I embrace life
Live on the edge of a knife
Cut through the chaos and strife
To find my path

That's just is a fact of being alive
Whatever makes you feel good can make you feel like dying
You cry out in pleasure and cry yourself to sleep
Your make your choices, your choose your course
You can make pretend you've got no remorse
But the deeper the suffering the sweeter is the relief

This flesh that we own
It's gonna fall off our bones
And there ain't no creed that'll save us from the touch of death

So reach out and touch
Someone who wants it so much
Sample every taste 'cause you don't wanna waste a breath

And if you can't find no reason or rhyme
You can make your own rhythm baby take your time
Just remember contentment is a lie

Me, I live for love and lust and rock and roll
So come on riddle my heart with your bullet holes
I don't care if it hurts as long as it still bleeds
I can turn this lead to gold inside of me

Love, lay me down, lay me out, lay me low
Love, lay me down, lay me out, lay me low

That's just the fact of being alive
Whatever makes you feel good can make you feel like dying
You cry out in pleasure and cry yourself to sleep
You gotta make your choices, gotta choose your course
No need to make pretend you've got no remorse
But the deeper the suffering the sweeter is the relief
