Lyrics

Smoke plumed from her lips as her whimpers Shivered with the night birdsโ€™ song Curled up under his black leather jacket She fell asleep to the mating calls With the sleeves wrapped around her waist He held her in a dream His wounds wept when she begged him to stay While the cigarette hissed on the sheets He said, Iโ€™ll never leave When the tears soak through your tattered hair Iโ€™ll never leave And you feel like dying Iโ€™ll be there Iโ€™ll never leave Close your violet eyes and stay with me Iโ€™ll never leave Out in the fog between the evergreens And Iโ€™ll never leave โ€œI feel like I was created to suffer. Sade had Justine and God has me. โ€œ He said, โ€œThought your god had Job for all that.โ€ โ€œYeah, but Job was redeemed And no matter how hard I pray Itโ€™s just more misery.โ€ His breath burned on her hips when he whispered, โ€œYouโ€™ve got a savior in me.โ€ โ€˜Cause Iโ€™ll never leave When the flames lick hot between your legs Iโ€™ll never leave Hide in sleep and feel my tongue instead Iโ€™ll never leave Tried for countless lives to set you free Iโ€™ll never leave Donโ€™t you resist this fire, come with me โ€˜Cause Iโ€™ll never leave Weโ€™ll drift out to the sea Like mist between the trees And start swimming To the coast youโ€™ve seen in vivid dreams And inked in your arm from memory Bound to me, youโ€™ll learn what pleasure pain can bring Baby, you can suffer there in peace And, child,Youโ€™ll never leave Sleep through the sirens Sleep through the sirens
