1
i wore my blackest heart into my evening dress
2
as i crossed that floor in a spirited mess
3
and i wonder just how long i've been drinking myself to death
4
as i cut out my tongue and off my head
5
i crawled like a sunset into bed
6
and i spent the whole night dreaming bout what that strange girl said
7
she said "all of your hopes and all of your dreams
8
shattered to dust and split at the seams
9
at the bottom of the bottle you can wipe your conscience clean
10
and if hell don't make you suffer you can surely suffer me"
11
it was the sort of night you felt like breaking up
12
or going out to vandalise the streets
13
but i stayed at this masquerade and i had another drink
14
i was hoping to bring sin to my sheets
15
we are all so special, we are neat
16
and i keep freaking people out
17
every time i speak
18
cuz i say...
19
i wore my blackest heart into my evening dress
20
i wore my favourite tie in my sunday best
21
and i shot a thousand rounds in an act of pale jest
22
i said "christ i need a lawyer"
23
he said "son i'll do my best"
