Dm
Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
      A#
Your tongue is like poison
    Dm
So swollen it fills up my mouth

Love me, love me, love me
You nail me to the floor
And push my guts all inside-out

Get it out, get it out, get it out
Get your fucking voice
Out of my head

Chorus:
   Dm
I never wanted this!
   A#                   Dm
I never wanted any of this!
Dm
I wish you were dead!
I wish you were dead!
