Death On The Lips - Walking Papers

Those girls weren’t thinking 'bout the weather

When decided what they was gonna wear tonight

They curl their lips yeah they huddle together

On a curb outside a dive called the Satellite

They do their best to look unimpressed

They suck on cigarettes like cancer doesn’t exist

One night only is what they suggest, if it’s alright

I’ve kissed death th lips

And I said goodbye to lie I’ve been living

And I’m not sur this is it

But, tonight I’m getting by on what the streets are giving

I’m the ghost of the unforgiven

I’ve got eyes like the back of a mirror

I hide in the shadows of my bad decisions

And she’s the only one that can make me disappear

Yeah, those girls weren’t thinking 'bout tomorrow

They say they don’t care what anyone thinks

They spent a lifetime getting ready to go dancing

So they can stand there in the corner

Circling their straws in their drinks

She’s the first light in the distance

After a decades in the dark

She’s a pair of jumper cables

On a heart that wouldn’t start

She’s a splash of Coca-Cola

In a glass of Maker’s Mark

And, I’ve kissed death the lips

And I say goodbye to lie I’ve been living

And I’m not sure this is it

But, tonight I’m getting by

On what the streets are giving

I’ve kissed death the lips

And I said goodbye to lie I’ve been living

And I’m not sure this is it

But, tonight I’m getting by on what the streets are giving

I’m the ghost of the unforgiven

I’ve got eyes like the back of a mirror

I hide in the shadows of my bad decisions

And she’s the only one that can make me disappear
