Intro : (x2)
I watch the work of my k in bold and b oyful
T oying somewhere between l ove and ab use
C alling to join them the w retched and joyful
S haking the wings of their t errible y ouths
F reshly disowned in some f rozen dev otion
N o more alone or mys elf could I b e
L urched like a stray to the a rms that were open
No s hortage of sordid no p rotest from m e
With her sweetened breath and her tongue so mean
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene
With her straw-blonde hair her arms hard and lean
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene
F eeling more human and h ooked on her f lesh I
L ay my heart down with the r est at her f eet
F resh from the fields all f etor and fertile
I t's bloody and raw but I s wear it is s weet
With her sweetened breath and her tongue so mean
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene
With her straw-blonde hair her arms hard and lean
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene
L eashless confusion I'll w ander the c oncrete
W onder if better now h aving surv ived
J arring of judgement and r easons defeat
The sweet h eat of her breath in my m outh I'm al ive
With her sweetened breath and her tongue so mean
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene
With her straw-blonde hair her arms hard and lean
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene
