Beating on Death's Door lyrics

She's a slack one, born of greed

Speaking endless words, long and empty

A beggar who still wants to choose

A dethroned queen still demands her due

If you want something for nothing you take what you get

A virgin whore in a dirty wedding dress

Scream for salvation, beating on death's door

But just be careful what you wish for

There's a blood stain on the ceiling

But you're the only duck in the shooting gallery

Trying to look through a bricked-in window

Your destiny lies in the alley below

Trying to see yourself in a shattered mirror

When all else fails, she holds you with broken arms

There's poison in her veins, but the bitch comes for free

A quick fix for all that you think that you need

Scream for salvation, beating on death's door

But just be careful what you wish for

The patron saint of fools answers all your requests

She's all yours now, so deal with it

There's no shoulder left to cry wolf on

You're tied in knots that can't be undone

No more warnings will fall on deaf ears

You lied too many times now no one cares

No one cares

An empty promise with a heart of tin

Her crooked smile beguiles and it draws you within

The hope for something more, all that you wish for

A kick to the head and a boot to the door

Chasing a dragon in a lady's clothes

A paper trail ends in choking smoke

But you know you lit the match yourself

Play the burning cards that you dealt

Scream for salvation, beating on death's door

But just be careful what you wish for

The patron saint of fools answers all your request

She's all yours now, so deal with it

She's all yours now, so deal with it

She's all yours now, so deal with it

Broken

Broken

Broken

Broken

Broken

Broken
