Painkiller
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Batten up the hatches, here comes the cold
I can feel it creeping, it's making me old
You give me so much love that it blows my brains out
You need something better then the bacon and eggs
The creeking in the walls and the banging in the bed
You give me so much love that it blows my brains out
Chorus:
Summer rain,
Dripping down your face again
Summer rain,
Praying someone feels the same
Take the pain killer
Cycle on your bicycle
Leave all this misery behind...
My love,
Giving me head
Feeling very guilty, breaking the bread
Losing my attention, I'm taking the world on...
So batten up the hatches, here comes the cold
I can feel it creeping, it's making me old
You give me so much love that it blows my brains out
Repeat chorus
My love
My love
My love
Oh my love
Repeat chorus x2
Leave all this misery behind...
