And if they get me and the sun goes down into the ground And if they get me, take this spike to my heart and And if they get me and the sun goes down And if they get me, take this spike and You put the spike in my heart! And if the sun comes up Will it tear the skin right off our bones? And then, as razor sharp white teeth Rip out our necks, I saw you there Someone get me to the doctor Someone get me to a church Where they can pump this venom Gaping hole And you must keep your soul Like a secret in your throat And if they come and get me What if you put the spike in my heart? And if they get me and the sun goes down And if they get me, take this spike and Can you take this spike? Will it fill our hearts with thoughts of endless night time sky? Can you take this spike? Will it wash away this jet black feeling? And now the nightclub sets the stage for this They come in pairs She said, "We'll shoot back holy water Like cheap whiskey, they're always there" Someone get me to the doctor And someone call the nurse And someone buy me roses And someone burned the church We're hanging out with corpses And driving in this hearse And someone save my soul, tonight Please save my soul Can you take this spike? Will it fill our hearts with thoughts of endless night time sky? Can you take this spike? Will it wash away this jet black, now? And as these days watch over time And as these days watch over time And as these days watch over us, tonight And as these days watch over time And as these days watch over time And as these days watch over us, tonight I'll never let them, I'll never let them I'll never let them hurt you, not tonight I'll never let them, I can't forget them I'll never let them hurt you, I promise Struck down, before our prime Before you got off the floor Can you stake my heart? Can you stake my heart? And these thoughts of endless night Bring us back into the light And this venom from my heart And these thoughts of endless night Bring us back into the light Can you stake my heart? Can you stake me before the sun goes down? And as always, innocent like roller coasters Fatality is like ghosts in snow
