Lyrics
DEAD BY NOW
Vs1
Whats the story today -Have you made up your mind yet?
I never know what time it is 'till your mouth
Your mouth is open wide
Your brain it works like clockwork -I'm part of the machinery
So do i keep you ticking 'till the next girl
The next girl walks inside
CH
Are you angry are you hurt?
Do I need to say I'm sorry
Or would you just prefer if i walked away forever?
If looks could kill - I'd be dead by now
Dead by now
Vs2
So your first hand strikes me a minute to the second
I should have learnt to hide my faces from you
It's not your fault at all
I heard alarm bells ringing on my doorstep
I should have learnt to never never listen
For the cuckoos call
Pre:
I wont wait
I wont hide
I wont waste your precious time
I walked away
And i died inside
But i dried my tears away
