Funeral For A Friend - Hospitality
Forget the letters just sleep sound tonight
Pull back the covers without a fight
But as we dance by emergency light
I fail to swallow my tongue
And I`m still here bleeding
So pull this switch and see my body twitch
Oh, as we dance on this memory
A light left blinking on it`s own
And my blood is flowing
Down through this machine
In hope and desire in hope I expire
[Chorus]
Turn off this machine
Cause this is the only thing that`s keeping me alive
Turn off this machine
Cause this is the only thing that`s keeping me alive
So pull this switch and see my body twitch
As we dance on this memory
Despair has devoured me whole
A seed wont grow from this soul
This pill wont cure my disease
Can`t you kill this beating heart
[Chorus]
Please nurse my batteries are running low
Please nurse oh I think I`m running low
Left here swallowed by this fear
That you will always keep me here
To close your eyes and pray for this to go away
Cause I`m not angry, tired or sore
More of a man than I was before
Is this the cause I`m looking for?
I plead forgive me
Cause I`m no martyr
Is this the cause that I`m looking for?
[x2]
Cause I`m not angry, tired or sore
More of a man than I was before
Is this the cause that I`m looking for?
[x2]
I plead forgive me
Cause I`m no martyr
You`re not the cause that I`m looking for
[x3]
Pull back the covers without a fight
But as we dance by emergency light
I fail to swallow my tongue
And I`m still here bleeding
So pull this switch and see my body twitch
Oh, as we dance on this memory
A light left blinking on it`s own
And my blood is flowing
Down through this machine
In hope and desire in hope I expire
[Chorus]
Turn off this machine
Cause this is the only thing that`s keeping me alive
Turn off this machine
Cause this is the only thing that`s keeping me alive
So pull this switch and see my body twitch
As we dance on this memory
Despair has devoured me whole
A seed wont grow from this soul
This pill wont cure my disease
Can`t you kill this beating heart
[Chorus]
Please nurse my batteries are running low
Please nurse oh I think I`m running low
Left here swallowed by this fear
That you will always keep me here
To close your eyes and pray for this to go away
Cause I`m not angry, tired or sore
More of a man than I was before
Is this the cause I`m looking for?
I plead forgive me
Cause I`m no martyr
Is this the cause that I`m looking for?
[x2]
Cause I`m not angry, tired or sore
More of a man than I was before
Is this the cause that I`m looking for?
[x2]
I plead forgive me
Cause I`m no martyr
You`re not the cause that I`m looking for
