lyrics

well you talk talk talk with your dirty mouth
still I can't seem to figure you out

so I'm cursing like a sailor with my gilded tongue
but there's no heart, and I'm hardly charming

I've been gnawing at the bible trying to swallow faith
still I'm unconvinced of the holy ways

I could kneel and beg for water but my thirst is quenched
I've got a penchant for sex, but none for romance

there's no way
I'm leaving here alone
there's no shame
just Heimlich up your soul

well she nails me like a hammer when my spirits broke
can't crack a smile I can still crack a joke

here my heart pumps rust and my brain is dust
my liver is gold, but I'm sure it could bust

I got a finger at pulse and my feet in the air
tripping over myself just to show I don't care

if the reaper comes tomorrow, man I'll shake his hand
say "your job is rough so I won't make a stand"

there's no way
I'm leaving here alone
there's no shame
just Heimlich up your soul

my soul is such a coward, yours is shriveled too
it's a match made in hell that we'll never get through

I don't need a lover I don't need a god
what a shame that is, cause it's such a nice thought

still deliver me from evil, just don't wreck my buzz
suppose I just want a peach but none of the fuzz

I'm hoping I won't see you at the bitter end
I don't need your love, and we sure as shit ain't friends
