Put the Kids to Bed

Put the kids to bed
I need you to lie beside me
Remind me that I'm dead

The guest room
Two spools of thread, I hide the needle
Behind the bed with my garter belt
And my cigarette

Well, while the little one's asleep
I need you to tell me lies
To fill my empty uninspired mind, oh

When we were young we said one day
Honey, you and I, we're gonna share the grave
I didn't know it'd come so soon
No, I didn't know it'd come so soon

The feeling in my belly of living with but not loving you
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
It keeps me longer at the corner store, yeah
Smilin' out of necessity, just showin' teeth
To keep the peace, workin' out
To induce sleep, so as I happily avoid you

When we were young we said one day
Honey, you and I, we're gonna share a grave
I didn't know it'd come so soon
No, I didn't know it'd come so soon

No, I didn't know

Put the kids to bed
It's about time I assume my role
Just hiding my black holes
Beneath blankets of love gone cold
