Throw your dollar bills and leave your thrills all here with me   Speak but don't pretend I won't defend you anymore you see   It aches in every bone, I'll die alone, but not for you   My eyes don't need to see that ugly thing, I know it's me you fear   If you want me hold me back      Frail, the skin is dry and pale, the pain will never fail   And so we go back to the remedy   Clip the wings that get you high, just leave them where they lie   And tell yourself, 'You'll be the death of me'      I don't need a friend, I need to mend so far away   So come sit by the fire and play a while, but you can't stay too long   It aches in every bone, I'll die alone, but not for pleasure   I see my heart explode, it's been eroded by the weather here   If you want me hold me back      Frail, the skin is dry and pale, the pain will never fail   And so we go back to the remedy   Clip the wings that get you high, just leave them where they lie   And tell yourself, 'You'll be the death of me'   Frail, the skin is dry and pale, the pain will never fail   And so we go back to the remedy   Clip the wings that get you high, just leave them where they lie   And tell yourself, 'You'll be the death of me'      Hold your eyes closed, take me in   Hold your eyes closed, take me in      Frail, the skin is dry and pale, the pain will never fail   And so we go back to the remedy   Clip the wings that get you high, just leave them where they lie   And tell yourself, 'You'll be the death of me'   Frail, the skin is dry and pale, the pain will never fail   And so we go back to the remedy   Clip the wings that get you high, just leave them where they lie   And tell yourself, 'You'll be the death of me'
