Dark Horse

oh sweet lord what have i done
got next to heaven so i turned to run
struck a pose as the days went by
my dirty little secret was i thought i could go back
i ran away when life started to taste so sweet
now it's gone and betrayal gets her song

now i get drunk in bars called regret and shame
comforting myself i'll never feel such warmth again
possession's a dark horse indeed
she'll lure with her charms and keep you on your knees
that flag of virtue that i did dare to wave
let it burn and spread the ashes on my grave

i don't invest too much into the afterlife
because here on earth is where we create paradise
if you find someone to take you there
you better better better go
cuz the chance is rare
i ran away to make it easier now
let it burn
and cast the ashes on my

easier now
make it easier now
make it easier now
make it easier
