  • Ever since I can remember, I've felt it in my bones
    A tragic destiny was reserved for me all on my own
    But, oh, I didn't know why
    Oh, no, no I didn't know
    But then I saw your face and realised I was dying for you

    'Cause you're a gun to my head and you're a wound in my chest
    Yeah, you're my favourite jewellery worn just like a noose 'round my neck
    I'm losing gallons of blood, the river's turning to red
    I got a smile on my face, I bleed even more

    All the pain and torture that I went through
    All makes sense to me now, I was dying for you
    I was dying for you, I was dying for you
    Even right at the end, I'll keep dying for you
    All the pain and torture that I went through
    All makes sense to me now, I was dying for you
    I was dying for you, I was dying for you
    I'll keep dying for you, I'll keep dying for you

    Ever since I can remember, I'd set myself on fire
    And lay down in the road and wait to feel the weight of the tires
    But, oh, I didn't know why
    Oh, no, no I didn't know
    But then I kissed your lips and realized I was dying for you

    'Cause you're the poison I drink
    I drink you twice to be sure
    And then I find the highest building just to fall on my sword
    I'm losing gallons of blood
    The river's turning to red
    I got a smile on my face
    I bleed even more

    All the pain and torture that I went through
    All makes sense to me now, I was dying for you
    I was dying for you, I was dying for you
    Even right at the end, I'll keep dying for you
    All the pain and torture that I went through
    All makes sense to me now, I was dying for you
    I was dying for you, I was dying for you
    I'll keep dying for you, I'll keep dying for you

    Dying, dying, dying, for you, for you, for you
    Dying, dying, dying, for you, for you, for you
    Dying, dying, dying, for you, for you, for you (you, you)
    Dying, dying, dying, for you, for you, for you
    Dying, dying, dying, for you, for you, for you
    Dying, dying, dying, for you, for you, for you
    (Dying, dying, you, you)
