With one or two i get used to the room.
we go slow when we first make our moves.
by five or six bring you out to the car.
number nine with my head on the bar.
and its sad, but true.
out of cash and i owe....you

i got desperate desires and unadmirable plans.
my tongue will taste the gun and malicious intent.
bring you back to the bar.
get you out of the cold.
a sober straight face gets you out of your clothes.
and they're scared, that we know all the crimes they'll commit
who they'll kiss before they get home

i will lie awake
and lie for fun and fake the way i hold you.
let you fall for every empty word i say

barely conscious in the door where you stand.
your eyes a fighting sleep while your mouth makes your demands.
you laugh at every word, trying hard to be cute.
i almost feel sorry for what im gonna do.
and you hair smells of smoke.
who will cast the first stone?
you can sin or spend the night all alone.

brass buttons on your coat hold the cold
in the shape of a heart that they cut out of stone.
you're using all your looks that youve thrown from the start.
if you let me have my way i swear ill tear you apart.
cause its all you can be
you're a drunk and your scared
its ladies night, all the girls drink for free

i will lie awake
and lie for fun and fake the way i hold you.
let you fall for every empty word i say

i will lie awake
and lie for fun and fake the way i hold you.
let you fall for every empty word i say

i will lie awake
and lie for fun and fake the way i hold you.
let you fall for every empty word i say
