The chill in his bones gets worse by night
He blows a kiss with his eyes
There is no god at this hour, she said
With a smile across her lips
The fate of the world is on our minds
Silhouettes, cigarettes, and wine
The blood and the flesh he will provide
Don't say goodbye, don't say goodnight
He finally has the words to describe
Carve the cross that he bears with a knife
The cure for the day and the night
You won't get out alive
Tonight we ride
♪
He'll lead you down this hollow road
Come in and stay for a while
A promise I promise will break in time
Take this pill to ease your mind
Draw the shades and lock the door
For a price you can't go home
If these walls could talk they'd bleed
In your thoughts and on your knees
He finally has the words to describe
Carve the cross that he bears with a knife
The cure for the day and the night
You won't get out alive
Tonight we ride
Carve the cross that he bears with a knife
The cure for the day and the night
You won't get out alive
