Dressed to Kill - The Virginmarys

She is addiction, she is my mind

Running on empty with my partner in crime

Speakin' our gospel and serving our time

If she wants forgiveness I’m first in the line

24/7 our body employs

A belly of nerves and a head full of noise

She’s straight down the middle, she cuts like a knife

She dresses to kill, when she’s saving my life

Strips off the armour get it all off her chest

Dances with karma in her black party dress

No secret ambition, she wants to be free

She’s lost in translation to the powers that be

Building the bridges and making amends

Burning the candle at 3 different ends

She’s straight down the middle, she cuts like a knife

She dresses to kill… she says…

«Step by step, we’ll find a way back home

Hand in hand, a walking prayer»

She is all I’ve ever known

Blood red ribbons in jet black hair

Pale white skin and eyes like pearls

In this single mind we share

One restless heart one tortured soul

It won’t ever let her go

She says

«Step by step, we’ll find a way back home

Hand in hand, a walking prayer»

She is all I’ve ever known

Blood red ribbons in jet black hair

Pale white skin and eyes like pearls

She’s my world, she’s my world

One restless heart one tortured soul

I will never let her go

She’s my world

She is addiction, she is my mind

Running on empty with my partner in crime

She’s straight down the middle

Cuts like a knife, she dresses to kill
