Lyrics for Strangulation

Strangulation I don't wanna feel a thing. When your hands close tight around my neck, And force the air that I breathe. I don't wanna feel a thing. Yes she was a young girl. Bout the age of 23. But somehow the lord never smiled down upon her, So she flew out on a breeze. Said: "I don't wanna feel a thing, I don't want to feel a thing." Sure he was a good kid. But his phone it'd never ring. He got tired of walkin a tightrope, Needin too much to drink. So he got on a knee. "I don't want to feel a thing" But I know there's someone that loves up above And want to fix you a dream. He wants to sit down and think. He wants to pour you a drink. And you wont feel a thing. You wont feel a thing.
