When you laid like a wolf
With your head on my lap
I felt like one of those portraits
Of women protected by a beast on a chain

They look so safe
A guard dog there just for her
If only she knew that with one wrong move
He'll turn around and tear off her hands

And I wish you had given me the courtesy
Of ripping out my throat
And I wish that I let you have the dignity
Of letting me go

I break apart without your arms
The smell of soap and petrol smarts
Let me feed you to my friends
Over and over again

Let my last words be our last dance
I'd die for you no questions asked
If anyone could kill me
It probably would be you

He's got letters on his fist
R-I-D-E
A triumph on his hips
He looks like one of those
Film stars
With a blow up doll
And a BB gun

And I wish you had given me the courtesy
Of staying one more night
And I wish that I had the guts
The dignity
To put up a fight

I break apart without your arms
The smell of soap and petrol smarts
Let me feed you to my friends
Over and over again

Let my last words be our last dance
I'd die for you no questions asked
If anyone could kill me
It probably would be you
Don't have the strength to pin me down
The time I wasted in your mouth
Waves that crash against your chest
Over and over again

I'd kiss your eyes and frame your teeth
As you crawl back into the sea
Oh, anyone could kill me
And I'd never ever let it be you

Give me the strength
Give me the strength
Give me the strength
Give me the strength
Give me the strength
Give me the strength
Give me the strength
Give me the strength
Give me the strength
Give me the strength
Give me the strength
Give me the strength
