When you say it's dead and gone
Yes I know, you're wrong
Cut and slash, sharpest knife
It won't die
Poison cup, drank it up
It won't die
No fire, no gun, no rope, no stone
It won't die, oh

Why you gotta shove it in my face
As if you put me in my place?
'Cause I don't care if you or me is wrong or right
Ain't going to spend another night
In your bed, in your bed

The laws of men are just pretend
They ain't mine
Love so good, love so bad
It won't die, oh
Some talk too long, they know it all
Well, I just smile and move on
Words ain't free like you and me
I don't mind, yeah

Why'd you have to be so mean and cruel?
The dogs are loose, I'm on to you
You ball and chained together from the dawn to dusk
Can't call it leavin' 'cause it's just
I never came, I never came
I never came, I never came
I never came, I never came
