Punches and Knives

歌詞

The sound of new machines Over the junkyard Ease him into sleep A bullet to the brain Means that he drunk hard Looking for the deep A stranger he now knows To be a countess Wakes him with a start And asks please take me home To Daddy's address You can have my heart A stranger he now knows To be unstable Writhes with need and fears A look of pure dirt Across the table Even so he hears The alarm in his head Moving into the red Sounding like punches and knives Hear the voices, they cry It's likely you'll die Pounded by punches and knives The lady did not show Her recognition Of his firm replies Just took control and moved Into position Sparks in magnet eyes So with one simple no It's the green light to go What if the answer was so A week's loving quite dark And out goes the spark Then she'd have finished with me A stare he could see now May signal violence Should he make a move A sweetly pleading smile Prompts only silence Got no point to prove A stare he could now see Went quite a distance Hiding make-up tears With loud and knowing tones Of dark insistence This is what he hears
