lyrics

I got drunk again
For it slightly eases the pain
It helps forget your face
Your toxic embrace
The never ending rain

How could such sweetness
Turn so quickly to bitterness?
A sinister refrain
A back-breaking pain
A gloomy distress

It started as love
Lasted a year or two
Now it's fear of the cold
I'm not so bold
I'm a junkie for you
It started as love
Lasted a month or two
Now it's fear of the dark
As the night demons bark
I'm a zombie for you

I'm damned if I don't
I'm even more damned if I do
But there's no way around it
I cannot escape it
I'm so stuck with you

Life could be so sweet
Instead of feeling incomplete
But you made your choice
And there were no two meanings
In the sound of your voice

It started as love
Lasted a week or two
Now it's fear of the cold
I'm not so bold
I'm a junkie for you
It started as love
Lasted a day or two
Now it's fear of the dark
As the night demons bark
I'm a zombie for you

You know, when you dumped me
You hurt me real bad
Real deep, up the...
But you knwo what?
Let bygones be bygones
It does not do to dwell on bad feelings

Wait, it's not true...

In fact I do
I wish your hair will fall off
I hope all your socks will smell
I hope you get holes in yoçur underwear
I hope all your shoes will be too small
I hope everybody lets you down the way you did with me
I hope you get sick
I hope you get leper
And if you finally die
Well I will not be sad
There will be no tears running down those cheeks of mine
In fact I will be glad
You have no idea how much I will be glad!
