Lyrics

[Intro]

Sister, I'm not much a poet

But a criminal

And you never had a chance

Love it or leave it, you can't understand

A pretty face, but you do, so carry on

And on, and on

[Verse 1]

I wouldn't front the scene if you paid me

I'm just the way that the doctor made me

On and on, and on, and on

Love is the red, the rose on your coffin door

What's life like, bleeding on the floor

The floor, the floor?

[PreChorus]

You'll never make me leave

I wear this on my sleeve

Give me a reason to believe

[Chorus]

So give me all your poison

And give me all your pills

And give me all your hopeless hearts

And make me ill

You're running after something

That you'll never kill

If this is what you want

Then fire at will

[Verse 2]

Preach all you want, but who's going to save me?

I keep a gun on the book you gave me

Hallelujah, lock and load

Black is the kiss, the touch of the serpent son

It ain't the mark or the scar that makes you one

And one, and one, and one

[PreChorus]

You'll never make me leave

I wear this on my sleeve

Give me a reason to believe

[Chorus]

So give me all your poison

And give me all your pills

And give me all your hopeless hearts

And make me ill

You're running after something

That you'll never kill

If this is what you want

Then fire at will

[PreChorus]

You'll never make me leave

I wear this on my sleeve

You want to follow something

Give me a better cause to lead

Just give me what I need

Give me a reason to believe

[Chorus]

So give me all your poison

And give me all your pills

And give me all your hopeless hearts

And make me ill

You're running after something

That you'll never kill

If this is what you want

Then fire at will

[Chorus]

So give me all your poison

And give me all your pills

And give me all your hopeless hearts

And make me ill

You're running after something

That you'll never kill

If this is what you want

Then fire at will
