The Last Dinner Party - Count The Ways Lyrics

 The Last Dinner Party - Count The Ways Lyrics 

Let the snake bite

Let her crawl under your skin

Let it eat you from within

It's alright

The bitterness is growing

You break into my house

I’ll break into your house

Do it

I’ll do it

If you twist the knife right

I will twist the knife left

Screw it

I’ll screw it

I can hear strings

That should be for me

I can see rings

That should be for me

That should be for me

That should be for me

I count the ways

That I love you everyday

Like I count the days

Since I could recall your face

Oh the days don’t get easier

The gaps just get bigger

Until I can almost bear

Thinking of you

On my deathbed

Raise my eyes up to the lord

I know you’ll come just when I call

Stretch my hand out

It freezes in the air

There wasn’t anybody there

Now my house is your house

And it is a nice house

Screw it, screw it

I will twist my knife right

I will twist my knife left

Do it

I’ll do it

I can hear bells

That should ring for me

I can taste hell

That should be for me

That should be for me

That should be for me

I count the ways

That I love you everyday

Like I count the days

Since I could recall your face

Oh the days don’t get easier

The gaps just get bigger

Until I can almost bear

Thinking of you

I love the way

That I can’t escape the pain

How it hangs ‘round my heart

Like the letters in your name

Oh the days don’t get easier

The gaps just get bigger

Until…

Oh the days don’t get easier

The gaps just get bigger

Until I can almost bear

Thinking of you
