she sits at the table
oh beautiful eyes
with a fork in her hand she smiles

i gather the coal
let's start a fire
oh beautiful flames rise higher

she sets down the fork
puts her hands on the table
the reflection of flames in her eyes

she picks up the meat
bites down with her teeth
the juices drip
oh beautiful lips
she wipes and she smiles
"put more coal on the fire
we haven't done anything wrong"

father
i reach inside my chest and
pull out my heart
i give it
LORD, to you
father
make me new

as the city burns down
she's crawling out of the ground
her beautiful hair
her beautiful teeth
are caked with dirt
and decomposing

christine
dance with me
around the fire
i'm dying to see you smile

as we walk
hand in hand
the land overflows
with the living dead
and they feast on flesh
but we'll be content
watching the city burn

christine
dance with me
around the fire
i'm dying to see you smile

lights, camera, action
do you remember?
can you remember?

bang!
you selfish girl

you've taken everything away from me
everything that i love
everything that i'll ever be

and now you've come back for seconds it seems
that you won't be happy
until you've eaten all of me

this time
i won't back down
i'm ready
i won't bow down
before you

When I opened my eyes in that other world
I sat with somebody I didn't know
We talked like we knew almost everything
About each other but in my mind
I knew that this wasn't the right girl at all

For some reason I went along
With this stranger
We laughed and she smiled
For a while it was fun
But when I woke up
My ring was gone
