"Omen" lyrics - THE DAMNED THINGS

There ain't nothing I could say or do
But stand guard over the vault
Of a heart that I kept from you
All the things I ever promised, oh
They're under my nails, all over my clothes
They're leaving a trail behind me
As you bring them home

[Pre-Chorus:]
And you know
What I'd do
Yeah, baby
None of it's for you

[Chorus:]
And when I come around
Look for a sign from below
Stand still and wait for an omen
You fell in love with the lie
You dragged the body home
You dragged the body home, ooh
You dragged the body home

You pull the thread
And watch the whole thing go
All the pressure that built up behind our eyes
Made my head explode
I couldn't say it so I faked it, oh
It's under my nails, all over my clothes
It's leaving a trail behind me
As you bring them home

[Pre-Chorus:]
And you know
What I'd do
Yeah, baby
None of it's for you

[Chorus:]
And when I come around
Look for a sign from below
Stand still and wait for an omen
You fell in love with the lie
You dragged the body home

[Guitar solo]

[Pre-Chorus:]
And you know
What I'd do
Yeah, baby
None of it's for you

[Chorus:]
And when I come around
Look for a sign from below
Stand still and wait for an omen
You fell in love with the lie
You dragged the body home
With the sky coming down
The heat comes up from below
Stand still and wait for an omen
You fell in love with the lie
You dragged the body home
You dragged the body home
You dragged the body home
