Nine Lives

> Silence - it ain't the kill but the thrill of the chase Same old story, same old song Only the names have changed Fair warning - I could have read your mind in time By the look in your eyes Like diamonds turning to ashes Ties frayed and I missed your signs Now I can't get over you Cannot get under somebody else I close my eyes... (Chorus) When all I see is you, you came to drain my life away But it takes nine lives til it's over All I see is you, you came to drain my love away But I got nine - I got nine lives til it's over All my supplications gone unheard Your head in my crotch has turned to a boot But you won't hear a word Salvation - I ride into nowhere and out of nowhere I come The twinge in your brain, the pang of regret Don't mess with no son of a gun I'm gonna get over this Gotta get under somebody else I close my eyes... (Chorus)
