Shiver

Lock the door my one son Soon it will be all done They'll be coming for me shortly There's blood upon the streets tonight You should know I've done no crime But this will be the last time We can sit by the fire And I can tell you what you need to learn I shiver 'cause it's understood Shiver when the day is good Shiver at the very sight Shiver 'cause I know I'm right You're young but you're able To put food upon the table Now your mother will need you Your sister won't understand And in the years that follow If you're lost and hollow Remember why they stole me Because they couldn't take my soul And I shiver for the love we give Shiver for the life we live Shiver when I look at you Shiver 'cause you'll make it through Don't carry 'round the weight Of a vengeful hate Soon you'll become the ones For whom we sit and wait Hear the slow clock ticking Like a trigger clicking Footsteps in the alley The wolves are upon our door And your tears flow free But don't fear for me You'll be my keeper A ghost is what they'll get And I shiver at the very thought, Shiver 'cause it's all we've got Shiver when the sky turns black And I shiver 'Cause I won't be back I shiver 'cause I won't be back Shiver' cause I won't be back I shiver 'cause I won't be back
