Nine Lives Lyrics


Silence - it ain't the kill but the thrill of the chase

Same old story, same old song

Only the names have changed

Fair warning - I could have read your mind in time

By the look in your eyes

Like diamonds turning to ashes

Ties frayed and I missed your signs

Now I can't get over you

Cannot get under somebody else

I close my eyes...

(Chorus)

When all I see is you, you came to drain my love away

But it takes nine lives til it's over

All I see is you, you came to drain my life away

But I got nine - I got nine lives til it's over

All my supplications gone unheard

Your head in my crotch has turned to a boot

But you won't hear a word

Salvation - I ride into nowhere and out of nowhere I come

The twinge in your brain, the pang of regret

Don't mess with no son of a gun

I'm gonna get over this

Gotta get under somebody else

I close my eyes...

(Chorus)
