That wouldn't ever part
You're tower of beauty with a split in your tongue
That hasn't happened yet
Be still the wooden heart
For the drunken marionette
Be still the wooden heart
He's waiting on a spark
Be still the wooden heart
What you give is what you get
He says who will forgive you when I'm gone?
That hasn't happened yet
And in the hours left
That wouldn't ever part
He's waiting on a spark
They sing 'Auld Lang Syne'
And turn the lights low when you go
Intoxicated with sad songs
Here he comes, here he comes
Who will forgive you when I'm gone?
Here he comes, here he comes
Who will defend you when I'm gone?
He says who will defend you when I'm gone?
Wouldn't ever part
There at the bar pulling smoke to his lungs
Here he comes, here he comes
I hope you feel the things that I know, I won't
Been drinking things, I wish, I'd not
And I've got mutiny on my mind
A guilty conscience means at least you've got one
He says who will ignore me when you're gone?
Who will forgive you when I'm gone?
And he says who will ignore me when you're gone?
With the drunken marionette
Now come on lift me up
Now carry on
Been mainlining bad thoughts
Who will ignore me when you're gone?
He's waiting on a spark
Who carries evil out, evil will come
That wouldn't ever part
Well, I wanna dance by your tin cup
That hasn't happened yet
Be still the wooden heart
Now here he comes, here he comes
These days I'm worried 'bout your debts
