Denouement

[00:01.36] you keep a bible next to your bed

[00:02.18] to burn the evil thoughts from your head

[00:02.96] count the good days one by one

[00:03.51] god, how wicked we've become

[00:04.31] if somebody's coming for me

[00:05.37] i'm ready to fight

[00:05.91] with clenched fists and broken teeth

[00:06.47] i've been up all night

[00:07.29] and if death is waiting for me

[00:07.81] i'm ready to go

[00:10.01] there's no heaven above me,

[00:10.83] no bitter end below

[00:11.39] your walls are filled with posters of girls you wish you knew

[00:12.19] sad songs on the record player next to you

[00:13.01] cut your hair off, change your name

[00:13.59] but inside, darling, you're still the same

[00:14.41] these needles in your bloodstream

[00:14.93] and bruises on your arms

[00:15.77] you're a pale white painter's canvas

[00:16.57] i've never seen a heart like yours

[00:17.11] i wrote your wedding song

[00:17.91] and watched her throw her bouquet

[00:18.47] i'd write my own funeral hymn

[00:19.25] and watch you dance all day

[00:20.87] there's no beauty in dying

[00:21.71] we just carry on

[00:22.51] all rivers drain to the ocean

[00:23.33] and all oceans bring us home

[00:23.87] we live in a world of street signs

[00:24.71] and traffic lights

[00:25.57] and words like "forgive me,

[00:26.11] nothing feels like home tonight."
