Coffin Dancer Lyrics

Shoot him again cause I can see his soul dancing.
Shoot him again cause I can see his soul dancing.
I'm gonna miss this place.

If you give it to me, I'll give it back much harder.
If you treat me like a son, then I'll treat you like a daughter.
Everyone has a future; everyone has a soul.
Everyone has a heart, they have a mind, they have control.

The coffin dancer dances like he has something to prove because he does.
He sleeps a couple hours and in the morning, hates the morning when he wakes up.

The coffin dancer dances like he wants to make a friend but he does not.
The eye contact he makes with each and every one he doesn't see is kind of hot

I don't wanna go to here. There's nothing left to go on here.
There's nothing left to go on but the loving sense of tender in your eyes.

Shoot him again cause I can see his soul dancing.
Shoot him again cause I can see his soul dancing.
I'm gonna miss this place. I'm gonna miss its face
Just like a vein inside my heart.

The first line is a paraphrased quote from 'Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans', where Nick Cage's partners kill a drug dealer, but his soul continues dancing.
