About the Artist
Lyrics
If I stay, then I'd need for a reason Children ghosts, coming close in the rain I'm a barrel, I'm a barrel of batteries I'm a barrel, I'm a barrel of batteries With ice on the floor She wants to hear more But I'm losing my soul, you little whore Laughter strikes, laughter strikes in the morning Laughter burns, laughter burns all day 'Cause if you knew what the river holds And you won't go where the river flows I will stay, I will stay, had it coming With ice on the floor She wants to learn more I'm sleeping alone, you little whore I'm sleeping alone, you little whore
