Killing Floor

I hear you calling me

And I'm coming back to you

She was a singer in a punk band when she came for me

He found stability a redeeming thing

I remember when we left the party at that actor's house

You said, "Sometimes the edges will not meet up"

Something in their eyes when they walk away

Something in their eyes now when you wait

Every little breath that you take is God

Every single smile that you made was yours

Everybody wants what they can't afford

Everybody dies on the killing floor

Everybody dies on the killing floor

Everybody dies on the killing floor

Everybody dies on the killing floor

Everybody dies on the killing floor

I hear you calling me

And I'm coming back to you

You are the sunlight on a perfect day

You love the love songs that I won't sing

I remember when you said, "Scatter me across the streets

On the low east side of mansions and time machines"

Something in your eyes when you walked away

Something in their eyes now when you wait

Every little breath that you take is God

Every single smile that you made was yours

Everybody wants what they can't afford

Everybody dies on the killing floor

Everybody dies on the killing floor

Everybody dies on the killing floor

Everybody dies on the killing floor

Everybody dies on the killing floor

I hear you calling me

And I'm coming back to you
