You're just in time


Press the blade against my skin
Press the blade against my skin
Never to make love again
never to make love again
Smiler with knife it's alright
smiler with knife, it's alright


Surrender will I am before you
Surrendered will I am before you
I am sick to death of life
I am sick to death of life
Smiler with knife, alight
smiler with knife - alight

Smiler, oh, don't worry so

Slamming one shots, gentle pain
Slam-in one-shots gentle pain
Someone calling out my name

Sex and love are not the same

Are not the same


Time has frittered long and slow

All I am and was will go

But where to and why now?

When my last breath falls away
When my last breath falls away
Smiler, trust me when I say:
smiler trust me when I say
"You'll be OK"
you'll be OK
"You'll be OK"
you'll be OK.

Lyrics

See in me the side of you

that sometimes makes you jump with fright smiler with knife, it's your big night

Sinking bed all warm and clean only sadness waits for me smiler with knife, you're just in time

Press the blade against my skin never to make love again smiler with knife, it's alright

Surrendered will I am before you I am sick to death of life smiler with knife - alight

If such things weren't meant to be then they would never come to me smiler, oh, don't worry so

Slam-in one-shots gentle pain someone calling out my name sex and love are not the same

Time has frittered long and slow all I am and was will go but where to? and why now?

When my last breath falls away smiler trust me when I say you'll be OK you'll be OK.
