Lyrics for Permanent Sleep - Steel Mix

I bent over backwards, broke my neck And I stood up quick, then I hit the deck I get up slow, you stop and smile Then I smile back and you run a mile So then we take a backwards step And then you forgive me but never forget You cut! You cut!! You cut me deep for permanent sleep I gave to you years of life Then I turn my back and you use your knife You gave to me your pains and tears They went through my head like foreign spears You gave to me your pains and tears You cut! You cut!! You cut me deep for permanent sleep I hated it.!!!! I bent over backwards and broke my neck And I stood up quick I get up slow, you stop and smile Then I smile back I'll say my peace then I'll be gone The sun of a dark love, the sun that you shun You cut! You cut!! You cut me deep!
