I’m on my knees
down in the gutter
With no stars
above my head
Just a gun
against my temple
And a book
of hope and dread
I will die tonight
Like so many nights before
But she will come and claim my body
And she’ll bring me to her door
(and she will) strap me to the table
(and she will) raise me to the sky
(and she will) Make the sparks fall down like lightning
She will bring me back to life
She will bring me back to life
I am here
Among these vampires
As they lure
My soul away
And I know
I can’t go with them
But I know
that I can’t stay
And I will die tonight
like so many nights before
But she will come and claim my body
And she will bring me to her door
(and she will) strap me to the table
(and she will) raise me to the sky
(and she will) Make the sparks fly all around me
She will bring me back to life
She will bring me back to life
I can feel the rain that’s falling on my face
I can hear the thunder all around me
I can feel the current as it passes through my flesh
And I can feel her grace surround me
Now the nails
Are being hammered
And the light
Begins to fade
I hear the dirt drop on me
And I’m here
Where I am laid
And I will die tonight
like so many nights before
But she will come and claim my body
And she’ll bring me to her door
(and she will) strap me to the table
(and she will) raise me to the sky
(and she will) Make the sparks fly all around me
She will bring me back to life
She will bring me back to life
She will bring me back to life
