Lyrics for Private Hell

Give away a love And then remove another too Painted words adorn the walls Echoing untrue (I feel cold, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh) Promises abound You rarely find it to begin Maybe I'm afraid To let you all the way in (I guess so, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh) I excuse myself I'm used to my little cell I amuse myself In my very own private hell I excuse myself I'm used to my little cell I amuse myself In my very own private hell Lately I'm beside myself Pretending unconcerned Standing at a corner Where I threw you on a turn (I'll move on, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh) Flowers on a cross remain Mark an ending scene Damn it all if blood you spill Turn the grass more green (Life is short, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh) I excuse myself I'm used to my little cell I amuse myself In my very own private hell I excuse myself I'm used to my little cell I amuse myself In my very own private hell I amuse myself In my very own private hell
