When all my love is gone, when nothing can ignite inside me, you come with your wet matches, and we stand face to face so sick at heart as you strike and you strike and you strike and you strike and you . . .
D.O.A. . . .
It isn't only you, I feel it in the crush of crowds, I feel it inside bars, in my car, in my kitchen, in the shower, at work, in the middle of the night, in the morning hour,
D.O.A. . . .
At night I touch my scars, and do you know the Eastwood movie? he paints the whole town red, and then he rides away and they cut to the grave and the name is his, he is three years dead,
D. O. A. . . . .
