Nightstand Songtext
von Sarah King

Had this fear of fallin down the stairs
Since my father caught me in midair
When I was a baby, I was a baby yeah

When the devil′s with me I must say
He almost always gets his way
Since I was a baby, I was a baby yeah

I was born with cord wrapped around my neck
It's not something I could ever forget
The world′s been tryin' to take me out
Since the day I first arrived
There's a darkness a-reachin′ for my hand
I keep a gun in my nightstand
Waiting for music to bury a body by

Just like clockwork he appears
A lonesome soul with the ringing ears
But I′m not his baby, I'm not his baby, no

But the tale of Venus sways his mind
He falls into my trap right on time
Cuz he′s not a baby, he's not a baby, no


He was born with the shadows on his mind
Searching for something he could never define
The world′s been tryin' to drag him down
Since the day he first arrived
There′s a darkness a-reachin' for my hand
I take the gun from my nightstand
Dancing to music to bury a body by

The devil's on my back again
Looking out at all those sad young men
Who won′t be my baby, won′t be my baby, no
But before I tell him what he's won
I better tell him every little thing I done
Since I was a baby, I was a baby, yeah

I was born with the cord wrapped around my neck
It′s not something I could ever forget
The world's been tryin′ to take me out
Since the day I first arrived
There's a darkness a-reachin′ for my hand
There's a gun in my nightstand
Waiting for music to bury a body by
Waiting for music to bury a body by
Music to bury a body by
