Cheat Death Songtext
von Dirty on Purpose

Old Sasha was there already
With his bag of tricks
Your sweet small shivering body

With nothing left
And I begged him to steal just one more life
From the nine God gave you
He said the miracles were through
The cabin shook and listed

When you screamed
I found some whiskey in the kitchen
And poured it in your tea
I tried to calm you
I kissed your neck and I cooled your forehead
Then the telephone went dead

Oh my God and oh my dear
The shades are drawn
Well I guess our time is here

We were never as lucky as we′d like


Oh my God and oh my love
The doctor's gone
Well I guess our time is up

Break the fever and cheat death one more time

The trees were as still as icebergs
And green with spring
My knuckles popped and shattered
Like wound up teeth
With my nerves as taut as tension wires
And searchlights in the mist
I bit my lip, I bit holes in it

Oh my God and oh my dear
The flashing lights
Well I guess our time is here

We were never as lucky as we′d like

Oh my God and oh my love
The cops outside
Well I guess our time is up

Break the fever and cheat death one more time
