Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Honey, it's getting close to midnight
And all the myths are still in town
True love and lipstick on your linen
Bite the pillow, make no sound
If there's some living to be done
Before your life becomes your tomb
You'd better know I'm the one
Unchain your back door and invite me around
[Verse 2]
Bring your daughter, bring your daughter
To the slaughter
Let her go, let her go, let her go
[Verse 3]
Bring your daughter, bring your daughter
To the slaughter
Let her go, let her go, let her go
Let her go
[Verse 4]
Honey, it's getting close to daybreak
The sun is creeping in the sky
No patent remedies for heartache
Just empty words and humble pie
So get down on your knees, honey
Assume an attitude
You just pray that I'll be waiting
'Cause you know, you know I'm coming soon
[Verse 5]
Bring your daughter, bring your daughter
To the slaughter
Let her go, let her go, let her go
[Verse 6]
Bring your daughter, bring your daughter
To the slaughter
Let her go, let her go, let her go
[Verse 7]
So pick up your foolish pride
No going back
Nowhere, no way, no place to hide
[Verse 8]
Bring your daughter, bring your daughter
Bring your daughter, bring your daughter
Bring your daughter, bring your daughter
To the slaughter
[Verse 9]
Bring your daughter, fetch your daughter
Bring your daughter, fetch your daughter
Bring your daughter, fetch your daughter
To the slaughter
[Verse 10]
Bring your daughter, bring your daughter
To the slaughter
Let her go, let her go, let her go
[Verse 11]
Bring your daughter, bring your daughter
To the slaughter
Let her go, let her go, let her go
[Verse 12]
Bring your daughter, bring your daughter
To the slaughter
Let her go, let her go, let her go
[Verse 13]
Let her go
Let her go
Let her go
[Verse 14]
I'm coming to get ya
