Dog Lyrics

[Verse 1]

“Baby, my dog hasn't let me sleep in over a month,” I said

“Even while I speak to you its teeth dig into my flesh

I want to kiss you but my lips twist at the pain I'm in and

I want to hold you but I just can't get relaxed.”



[Pre-Chorus]

For every sigh in the cold night

Exhaust rolls from the rusted pipe



[Chorus]

'Cause I can't stand another day of barking at the teeth who bite

So I'm meeting with a stranger to buy a silver bullet

And lay to rest this pest who's tying knots inside my stomach

Here it goes

Here it goes



[Verse 2]

I knew that someday a shadow would go and show itself

Casting its silhouette upon the pale skin of my love

Puncturing the soft white neck

And draining out the deep blood red

It feeds at night upon the darkness in my mind



[Pre-Chorus]

For every sigh in the cold night

Exhaust rolls from the rusted pipe



[Chorus]

'Cause I can't stand another day of barking at the teeth who bite

So I'm meeting with a stranger to buy a silver bullet

And lay to rest this pest who's tying knots inside my stomach

Here it goes



Honey I'm sure you're wearing thin watching my eyes grow distant

I know “I love you” sounds more like a chant lately

But I still mean it
