[Verse 1]

I wish I was a whirling dervish

Shooting stars and cold white walls

Well, I want you to remember, jail's a hefty collect call

And all my friends are alcoholics

Yeah that's right, and I'm one too

So I sold the tumblin' dice, and all our babies, they're so blue

But I'm gonna send you postcards

Post-apocalyptic love

Wrap your arms around my trigger

All my ammo's been shot off

That's the last, last time you'll see me flailing arms and shaking trees

That's the last, last time I promised you I'd rid myself of thee

Ah, there's no comfort in black hell

[Verse 2]

Well, I'm running like a rooster

Got my head between my knees

Seems my cock has got cut off

The many men, they're chasing me

Read a book, or burn the bible

Tell your father he's your slave

Watch your best friend laid to rest, and toss a flower on his grave

Kiss my girlfriend in the morning, and again at half past noon

I'm so insecure, it's frightening

But I promise you, that's through

I'm the rat, and you're the cheese

There's no trap that set me free

'Cause I've always gotta have ya, but you don't always need me

Ah, there's no comfort in black hell

[Outro]

Ah, there's no comfort

No, not in black hell

Ah, there's no comfort

No, not in black hell

Ah, there's no nothing that you'll want

There's no nothing that you'll see

There's no nothing, except you're sorry, and the mental misery

Ah, there's no comfort in black hell
