Josephine Mark Lanegan

[Verse 1]
Death rains softly from her eyes, diamonds through her veins
Chrysalis to butterfly, stitched-together wings
"La-la-la," sings suicide, perfume in the air
She shines black, too beautiful, the pig and butcher man don't care

[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on to the end of the rope
Hold on to the end of the rope
Another one gone
Another one gone
And on and on and on

[Chorus]
Josephine, you got to trade, live for tomorrow
Josephine, you've been to your head, drawn on the line, dead on arrival

[Post-Chorus]
La-la-la-la-la-la-la (Oh, oh)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la (Oh, oh)

[Verse 2]
Scars so deep with cold surprise, she says, "Touch them," and you must
The rock will roll away in time and oceans turn to dust

[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on to the end of the rope
Hold on to the end of the rope
Another one gone
Another one gone
And on and on and on
