Life, Love & A Whole Lot Of Heartbreak!

Killing For A Living

I saw this girl on the train ride home

Looked like she'd come straight from Rome

Raised under the Holy dome

I saw her on my way back home

She smiled at me yeah, gave me a wink

And then she pulled a gun, just in a blink

Shot someone and I saw him sink

Over by the skating rink

Innocent though she seems

Her smile like sunlight beams

She'll tear you at the seams

And shatter all your dreams

Cause she's a killer yeah

She's killing for a living

(Killing for a living)

And she's a killer yeah

To her my heart I'm giving

(Heart I'm giving)

I followed her off that train

Running through the pouring rain

Though what I hoped to gain

Was lost to me, yeah

She turned after a hundred paces

Said "You know, I blow off faces"

 Kingpins stay in my good graces

Or they get blown away"

"I know very well" said I

"And yet I cannot lie!

Tell you the truth I must

Before my insides bust"

"I know that you're a killer yeah

That you're killing for a living

(Killing for a living)

But I can't help it, yeah

To you my heart I'm giving

(Heart I'm giving)"

Watch it! She said

Before I pickle you with lead

And you end up dead!

Oh how my heart then bled

I watched her walk away that night

Immobilized I was, with fright

And I guess I never might

Forgive myself for that night

For I'd played with fire you see

And endangered everyone close to me

I'd gone down on one knee

For someone who'd just as soon kill me

But she was a killer yeah

She was killing for a living

(Killing for a living)

And though she was a killer whoa

To her my heart I'd given

(Heart I'd given)

And I guess it's ok...
