[00:00.60]Hurts so bad that you know it's not sinning.
[00:03.87]The funny thing is it's just beginning to feel good.
[00:10.74]And downstairs all your friends are waiting,
[00:14.10]They're talking low and filling their stories with angels,
[00:21.72]And they imagine intervening in true crime photos and placing meaning within them -
[00:31.20]From blue to red to black-and-white.
[00:34.56]Don't look too long, you'll be up all night among them,
[00:41.46]The sudden dead. The last thing he said was "You should have been here before the camera arrived,
[00:49.05]Maybe I wouldn't have to die.
[00:55.11]But just live out this long life jangling, and as old men you could watch my hand dangling, cold and white."
[01:09.24]Baby, don't worry tonight;
[01:21.36]I know it's too ugly to hold yourself upright.
[01:36.27]So fill a clean glass, cold and smooth. Take the reds, then take the blues.
[01:42.06]Away, you can hear a voice that's singing
[01:47.52]"Angels could come but you wouldn't believe them, and those that believe still can't see them anyway."
[02:03.51]And The Suicide slides out of his skin and he climbs inside of the bed you're in and touches your face.
[02:17.04]He says "what right had I to die when all these little cells just tried to keep me alive?
[02:25.32]What right had I to leave the human race behind?
[02:30.57]Do you really think you're better, with your shotgun and your suicide letter?
[02:37.32]Do you think you're right?
[02:44.67]Well baby, don't worry tonight,
[02:51.36]I know it's too ugly to hold yourself upright.
[03:11.31]There's a light from the front room as it's filling with all of your friends.
[03:38.82]It doesn't get much better than this, and then it ends."
