I Never Told You What I Do for a Living Songtext
von My Chemical Romance

Stay out of the light
Or the photographs that I gave you
You can say a prayer if you need to
Or just get in line and I′ll grieve you
Can I meet you alone?
Another night and I'll see you
Another night and I′ll be you
Some other way to continue
To hide my face

Another knife in my hands
A stain that never comes off the sheets
Clean me off, I'm so dirty, babe
The kind of dirty where the water never cleans off the clothes
I keep a book of the names and those

Only go so far 'til you bury them
So deep and down we go


Touched by angels though
I fall out of grace
I did it all so maybe
I′d live this every day

Another knife in my hands
A stain that never comes off the sheets
Clean me off, I′m so dirty, babe
It ain't the money and it′s sure as hell ain't just for the fame
It′s for the bodies I claim and lose

Only go so far 'til you bury them
So deep and down we go, down

And down we go
And down we go
And down we go
And we all fall down
I tried
I tried


And we′ll all dance alone
To the tune of your death
We'll love again
We'll laugh again
And it′s better off this way
Well, never again and never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
And we′re all dead now
Well, never again and never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
And we're all dead now

I tried
One more night, one more night
Well, I′m laughing, crying, laughing
I tried
Well, I tried
Well, I tried
'Cause I tried
But I lied
I lied
I tried
I tried
I tried

And we′ll love again
We'll laugh again
We′ll cry again and we'll dance again
And it's better off this way
So much better off this way
I can′t clean the blood off the sheets in my bed

Well, never again and never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
And we′re all dead now
