Lyrics:

Everyone who knew me,
They’re all gone now
My friends are gone now, every one
Those lifelong, heart-to-heart friends that you’d die for
They’ve gone to where you cannot come back from

It’s all between me and God now
How do you like that deal?
Just like I thought
Standing in the rain
Talking to myself
Love me, Kill me,
Let me know you’re real

I didn’t make this chalked up world
And whatever damage I might have done
It sure ain’t worth pressing charges
That is, if justice is what you want
But if you’re looking for mercy
Or forgiveness,
Ain’t that the big cog in your machine?
If there was one thing I could change about myself
I wish I had a lower threshold of pain
‘cause you know I could always stand up to a beating
They could back me down sometimes, but I won’t quit
But they don’t give out no medals of valor
for being stupid enough to put up with this grit

Remember when I played the number she saw on the boat pulling out of the dock
The bookmaker hid for a week ‘fore he finally paid up.
Took her to Sears-Roebuck,
Bought a brand new Magnavox
It was just what she always wanted.
But where we gonna get the money?
I pulled the cash out of my pocket,
You should have seen her.

It’s all between me and God now
No one said it was fair
He can wait me out
He can starve me out
He can shut me up
Love me, Kill me, Let me know you’re there
Love me, Kill me, Let me know you’re there
Love me, Kill me, Let me know you’re there
