I've got your last goodbye
And a black limousine for you
Six hundred and sixty six times
I cried until my lips were blue
H is for the heart of mine you break
A is for all you took away
T is for the tainted tears I taste
E is for everything I hate about you
We're a long slow dance with death
And everyone knows it
Like the cold last breath you take
Nobody noticed
Love is lost on you and me
But how I mourn the revere
We're a long slow dance with death
Holding black roses
Falling black roses
Rimbaud and cigarettes
My head on your beating chest
Sweet dreams become regrets
Bury me with the rest
H is for the heart of mine you break
A is for all you took away
T is for the tainted tears I taste
E is for everything I hate about you
We're a long slow dance with death
And everyone knows it
Like the cold last breath you take
Nobody noticed
Love is lost on you and me
But how I mourn the revere
We're a long slow dance with death
Holding black roses
Falling black roses
Black roses falling all around
Resentment doesn't make a sound
Black roses falling all around
Resentment doesn't make a sound
We're a long slow dance with death
And everyone knows it
Like the cold last breath you take
Nobody noticed
Love is lost on you and me
But how I mourn the revere
We're a long slow dance with death
Holding black roses
Falling black roses
