Dead Ringer Lyrics

[Chorus]

Hold my cigarette while it's lit, and let it burn you, baby

Oh, dead ringer, you so sick, but you look amazing



[Verse 1]

All these voices in the night

Come like a cool summer rain

Know they hangin' for a while

So I let ‘em stay, stay, stay



[Verse 2]

Oh, all these faces in the night

Looking like television saints

With their names in big bright lights

All they do is take, take, take, take, take



[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, lady, I got my hand on the trigger and it's pointed at the dead ringer



[Chorus]

Hold my cigarette while it's lit, and let it burn you, baby

Oh, dead ringer, you so sick, but you look amazing

Hold my cigarette while it's lit, and let it burn you, baby

Oh, dead ringer, you so sick, but you look amazing



[Verse 3]

Oh, my reflection's from a time

When all the worst was a game

Nothin' like the shake of life

Stuck up in a race, race, race, race, race



[Verse 4]

Hell caught a shadow of a guy

Can't find him one little break

See, there's a gap in his smile

For fittin' all his pain, pain, pain, pain, pain



[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, lady, I got my hand on the trigger and it's pointed at the dead ringer



[Chorus]

Hold my cigarette while it's lit, and let it burn you, baby

Oh, dead ringer, you so sick, but you look amazing

Hold my cigarette while it's lit, and let it burn you, baby

Oh, dead ringer, you so sick, but you look amazing



[Bridge]

Yeah, yeah, did you think that he could hurt you

Yeah, yeah, the dead ringer never meant to

Yeah, yeah, did you think that he could hurt you

Yeah, yeah, the dead ringer never meant to



[Chorus]

Hold my cigarette while it's lit, and let it burn you, baby

Oh, dead ringer, you so sick, but you look amazing

Hold my cigarette while it's lit, and let it burn you, baby

Oh, dead ringer, you so sick, but you look amazing



[Outro]

(Dead ringer, you so sick)
