Life #9

Payback
Such a bitch and you never say sorry
Hate your goodbyes
Flash back
Years go by and I'm paying for leaving
Late every time

So pierce me like a belly ring
Bleeding on the floor
Black just like the roses
On the dresser by the door
And dried up like my hope
That you are ever comin' home
Ah never mind
That's life
Life #9

Break down
Losing tread and I'm trippin' on nothing
Rules don't apply
My fault
Wasted days and the wrong direction
I can't deny

So shoot me like tequila
'Til it burns down to your chest
And feel me taking over
'Til your body comes to rest
Maybe I've been toxic
And it's time that I confess
Ah never mind
That's life
Life #9

How many times
Did you think you would get
How many times
Do we play Russian Roulette
How many lies
Laid upon the table
Left inside a cradle
If only we were ready able willing to burn

Wake up
Days are short and the leaves are changing
Hate your disguise
Time flies
Lines are deep and my body's changing
You
You got those eyes

So drop me like a cannonball
At a drug stop in LA
And leave me with a letter
Everything you wanna say
You can't take it back
Or take it with you when you die
But you can try
That's life
Life #9

How many times
Did you think you would get
How many times
Do we play Russian Roulette
How many lies
Laid upon the table
Left inside a cradle
If only we were ready able willing to burn

Oh Delilah don't let the light away
Oh Delilah don't let the light away
Oh Delilah don't let the light away

Shoot me like tequila
'Til it burns down to your chest
Feel me taking over
'Til your body comes to rest
You can't take it back
Or take it with you when you die
But you can try
That's life
Life #9
