Lyrics
No sleep, your countenance fallen
Turned white as a sheet in the face of the rain growing colder
The wallflower waltzing
The locomotive crawling
But on the wheels where the rust don't stain
Your self-chosen cure is your self-chosen pain
No time to ride on the back of a beast such as suicide
Johnny come lately
Black lights suit you, baby
Too sweet, it's there for the killing
Liar there at your feet, but the face in the mirror's grown older
A bell's distant ringing
The scorpion stinging
Bells making noise, but your mind don't care
The world's screaming in like you're not even there
Inside, inside, to the back of a train they call suicide
Johnny come lately
You know the black light suits you, baby
Inside, inside, to the back of a train they call suicide
Johnny come lately
You know the black light suits you, baby
No time to ride on the back of a beast such as suicide
Johnny come lately
You know the black light suits you, baby
