lyrics

serial killers and superstars- victorian queens and their vintage cars- vampires kissing in the dark- come on baby lets get all dressed up- come on baby lets go have some fun-

death is a cold glove- but happiness is a warm gun- both hands hold me from above- hark the heroin angels sing- christ lives on in every junkie -hark the heroin angels sing- christ lives on in every junkie-

small town sex icon- movie star magician- they preach the same laws but- nobody listens- there’s a smiling junkie and a gold laughing Jesus- they say we’ve spoke the truth but no one believes us- so just leave us- so just leave us- just us be- just leave us be- and we’ll keep cracking jokes since you cannot believe- you cannot see- you cannot see-

death is a cold glove- but happiness is a warm gun- both hands hold me from above- hark the heroin angels sing- christ lives on in every junkie -hark the heroin angels sing- christ lives on in every junkie-

We meet in the crossroads of our thighs- in silk sheets meet there almost every night- and when we wake up- we have the answers-

death is a cold glove- but happiness is a warm gun- both hands hold me from above- hark the heroin angels sing- christ lives on in every junkie -hark the heroin angels sing- christ lives on in every junkie-

And I’m killin’ myself in caramel cream- I lick the tips of arsenic strawberries- and I’m bleeding- consume the world with ancient eyes- a dark chocolate coated- sick sweet sacrifice

death is a cold glove- but happiness is a warm gun- both hands hold me from above- hark the heroin angels sing- christ lives on in every junkie -hark the heroin angels sing- christ lives on in every junkie-
