Are you sitting alone tonight?
Did you make it back home all right?
If I knock on your door at one
Will you forget the things I've done?
Slowly back my fingers bend
I'm just waiting for the end
Can't you see that I'm hurtin' bad?
Don't my tears make you awful sad?
Oh I promise to treat you nice
Let me touch you just once or twice
Slowly back my fingers bend
I'm just waiting for the end
The moon has turned red
The stars have all fled
So long, so long, so long
See the scars on my mangled fist
On every knuckle your Judas kiss
Something's wrong I don't feel too good
Do you think that I ever could?
Slowly back my fingers bend
I'm just waiting for the end
Once we met by the garden wall
You were happy you stood so tall
I was coughin' up poisoned words
I was stranglin' pretty birds
Slowly back my fingers bend
I'm just waiting for the end
The moon has turned red
The stars have all fled
So long, so long, so long
Now I'm choppin' the roots from trees
When they scream it don't bother me
And your venom it chills me so
There's so much you must never know
Slowly back my fingers bend
I'm just waiting for the end
The moon has turned red
The stars have all fled
So long, so long, so long
