Blood red sheets
And satin dolls
That’s where I lost it all
Bruises purple majesty
The pain
It sets us free
In the darkness
We only know
The hurt it soothes our souls
Black and blue
Invited in
Don’t scream till it’s a sin
I’ve seen this place before
On the edge of pleasure
I died a little
To feel alive
It helps me lose my mind
Dig it in
Deep in the skin
That’s where my end begins
Tie a knot
Dig a grave
And stain these blood-red sheets
Here in the west
We close our eyes
And tell our children lies
We close the door
Lay a rope on the floor
It’s time to be a nation’s whore
Make the pain
Slow my time
Hot jet black leather ride
We’re all scarred
And battered here
Ripe fruit
For a lover’s fears
I’ve seen this place before
On the edge of pleasure
I died a little
To feel alive
It helps me lose my mind
Dig it in
Deep in the skin
That’s where my end begins
Tie a knot
Dig a grave
And stain these blood-red sheets
Blood red sheets
And satin dolls
That’s where I lost it all
Bruises purple majesty
The pain
It sets us free
In the darkness
We only know
The hurt it soothes our souls
Black and blue
Invited in
Don’t scream till it’s a sin
I’ve seen this place before
On the edge of pleasure
I died a little
To feel alive
It helps me lose my mind
Dig it in
Deep in the skin
That’s where my end begins
Tie a knot
Dig a grave
And stain these blood-red sheets
Here in the west
We close our eyes
And tell our children lies
We close the door
Lay a rope on the floor
It’s time to be a nation’s whore
Make the pain
Slow my time
Hot jet black leather ride
We’re all scarred
And battered here
Ripe fruit
For a lover’s fears
I’ve seen this place before
On the edge of pleasure
I died a little
To feel alive
It helps me lose my mind
Dig it in
Deep in the skin
That’s where my end begins
Tie a knot
Dig a grave
And stain these blood-red sheets
