Lyrics Coheed And Cambria – The Gutter

Over my dead body
The stars will let you know
It’s over
Now if I had my way

And so the story goes
When I leave will you let me go?
When the words stop coming
And the fear starts setting in slow
Don’t let me find you hiding under the covers
It’s your last chance oh you’d better
Call your mother!
All our hope is lost down in the gutter

When you’re in your bed
Sleeping toward the void
So deep it feels like death
Oh don’t you wake wake
Oh my love I hear
Life holds nothing for us beyond our time in here
Oh don’t you dare turn your back on me
No use running when the bad guy’s coming!
Oh I think you’ve got me pegged as the wrong man

And so the story goes
When I leave will you let me go?
When the words stop coming
And the fear starts setting in slow
Don’t let me find you hiding under the covers
It’s your last chance oh you’d better
Call your mother!
All our hope is lost down in the gutter

We were better together I know that much
Oh can’t you see
Through the bad and the good we had all the luck
The devil’s got nothing on us
You and me

Oh, baby over my dead body
Oh, baby over my dead body
Oh, baby over my dead body

We’re still counting on you
We’ll keep counting on you
Mother come on out
Show me what the world is all about
We’ll keep counting on you
Mother come on out
Show me what the world is all about
We’ll keep fighting for you

We’ll keep fighting for you
We’ll keep fighting for you
We’ll keep
We’ll keep fighting!
Oh I think you’ve got me pegged as the wrong man
Oh I think you’ve got me pegged

And so the story goes
When I leave will you let me go?
When the words stop coming
And the fear starts setting in slow
Don’t let me find you hiding under the covers
It’s your last chance oh you’d better
Call your mother!
All our hope is lost down in the gutter
