+/- {Plus/Minus} - All I Ever Knew

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1982846
Time can stand still inside my funeral home
And the things I do, not set in stone
Oh the bright ideas
In the dark when you feel oh so cold

Breathing in fumes
Embalming while I sew
And her skin looks so pretty down below
Oh the bright ideas
In the dark when you feel oh so cold

Oh I tried to fight
The pull those awful nights
All I ever knew
Don’t regret the things I do
So close your eyes tonight
Everything will work out fine
Yeah, it’ll work out fine

We’ve only got this one moment in time
I’ll let the fluids bring you back to life
Because tonight you’re mine
And I’ll shut your eyes

The stiffness of the skin
Will stretch with the mood I’m in
All I ever knew
Don’t regret the things I do
So close your eyes tonight
Everything will work out fine
It’ll work out fine

It’s all I ever knew
It’s all I ever knew
I don’t regret the things I do
It’s all I ever knew
