Sangtekst: Neko Case. Furnace Room Lullaby. Twist The Knife.
Tenderly, tenderly
Please take my breath from me
Into the fountains
And up from the graves
Tearfully, joyfully
Burn what is left of me
I don't want these burdens
I've handsomely
You'll be my guest
And I'll let you stay
Leave me the check
I'll pay with the rest of my life
Twist the knife
Carefully, quietly
You took what's young from me
I didn't deserve it
I gave it away
Cowardly, thoughtlessly
You walk away from me
And I'll tear my heart out
To save you the day
And you'll be my guest
And I'll let you stay
Leave me the check
I'll pay with the rest of my life
Twist the knife
Tenderly, tenderly
Please take my breath from me
Into the fountain
And up from the graves
Please take my breath from me
Into the fountains
And up from the graves
Tearfully, joyfully
Burn what is left of me
I don't want these burdens
I've handsomely
You'll be my guest
And I'll let you stay
Leave me the check
I'll pay with the rest of my life
Twist the knife
Carefully, quietly
You took what's young from me
I didn't deserve it
I gave it away
Cowardly, thoughtlessly
You walk away from me
And I'll tear my heart out
To save you the day
And you'll be my guest
And I'll let you stay
Leave me the check
I'll pay with the rest of my life
Twist the knife
Tenderly, tenderly
Please take my breath from me
Into the fountain
And up from the graves
Neko Case
