With piranha teeth
I been dreaming of you
And the taste of your love so sweet
Honest its true
Through my heart flows sleep
And the dark heavy rain
Where the gravedigger's song is sung
You've been torturing me
Tout est noir, mon amour
Tout est blanc
Je t'aime, mon amour
Comme j'aime la nuit
Love, is the medicine good?
Is the crow flying eight miles high?
Over wire and wood
Shovel down six feet
With a head heavy pain
The magnolia blooms so sweet
And it fades just the same
To the stars my love
To the sea
To the wheels my love
Till they roll all over me
Oh love, i been thnking of you
With razor white teeth so sharp
Honest its true
In my blood flows sleep
And the dark heavy rain
The magnolia blooms so sweet
Only torturing me
To the stars my love
To the sea
To the wheels my love
Till they roll all over me
