Can't Stop Killing You

Kirsty MacColl · Titanic Days [2009]

He blew into town like a paper sack

In a stolen car with a shotgun in the back

He said 'She can't run now

She can't hide

I'm gonna get her back

For her lies, lies, lies'



Well he taught her how to pout

And he taught her how to tease

And he taught her how to beg

When she fell down of her knees



He said 'Your face is different,

But your really all the same,

I'm have to teach you a lesson,

Again and again'



'See i feel no pleasure,

And i feel no pain,

So what else can i do?

I can't stop killing you

I can't stop

I can't stop killing you'



(chorus)

Can't stop

I can't stop

When your out there in the dark

I'll come running through your brain

When you wake up in the morning

I'll be pulsing through your veins

When your swimming in the water

I'm the hand that drags you under

I'm the lightening that strike you just before you hear the thunder

Ahh Ohhhhh



Well she woke up in the bathroom

With her face upon the floor

She said 'I don't know what i'm doing here,

But i've been here before'

And the fixit man had fixed her

'Coz he's such a little Hitler

And he loves to feel her power

That she gives him through her terror



Ahh Ohhhh

I can't stop killing you



Well she looked in to the mirror

As she smoked her cigarette

And she wondered where she'll go now

To find a place she can forget

All the things he said he'll do

I can't stop killing you



Can't stop

I can't stop killing you



(chorus)

Can't stop

I can't stop

When your out there in the dark

I'll come running through your brain

When you wake up in the morning

I'll be pulsing through your veins

When your swimming in the water

I'm the hand that drags you under

I'm the lightening that strike you just before you hear the thunder

Ahh Ohhhhh



I can't stop killing you



ohhh ohhhhh

I can't stop

I can't stop killing you

I can't stop

I cant stop killing you

I can't stop

I can't stop killing you

I can't stop

I can't stop killing you
