SINNERS, SAINTS, AND ACCIDENTS
warm milk and ashtrays
you’re looking like a ghost
lying in your bed
wondering who you love the most
and there are sirens in the morning
they seep into your head
I can see myself in the paper
on the front page dead
Sinners, saints, and accidents
come together all at once
all your demons get together
and try to through a punch
but you don’t have to kill your baby
if you take this little pill
I promise you darling
you won’t go to hell
and I say
only what I need
and you can love me
quietly
because I’ve been hiding
so your lover
won’t kill me
here we’re going uptown and I’m pushing her away
neither one of us should drive but I don’t want to stay
and she’s got me by the wing, and we’re both falling
and I’m gone I said, but I want it bad
there’s nothing left to say, I’m a boy so let me play
and she said give it to me give it to me give it to me
so I wake up at the airport by the hotel and say
that you can love me
quietly
I’ve been hiding
so your lover won’t kill me
please forget you know me
forget you know me
please, please, please
forget you know me
and you can love me
quietly
cause I’ve been hiding
so your lover
yes I’ve been hiding
so your lover won’t kill me
