"The Dove" lyrics

"The Dove"

He's full of righteous anger
Makes me bleed and explains it later
Ooo-ooo-oooh, I've become unloveable
I have become his entertainer
Ooo-ooo-oooh
Ooo-ooo-oooh

And I can't quench his thirst
So weary of his dirty work
He's flying too close to the sun
Oh, help me do what must be done

He's the smoke, I am the fire
He gave me the gun, and called me a liar
Ahh-ahh-ahh, but I can't deny it
No, I shot down the dove to keep him quiet

Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh
I shot down the dove

He's one step behind me
Everywhere, his watchful eyes will find me
Ooo-ooo-oooh, hypnotized by every word
Because his voice struck me like lightning

Ooo-ooo-oooh
Ooo-ooo-oooh

He's the smoke, I am the fire
He gave me the gun and called me a liar
Ahh-ahh-ahh, but I can't deny it
No, I shot down the dove to keep him quiet

Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh
I shot down the dove

Waiting for his next command
While the world burns in his hands
Just another hit and run
I only do what must be done

He's the smoke, I am the fire
He gave me the gun and called me a liar
Ahh-ahh-ahh, but I can't deny it
No, I shot down the dove to keep him quiet

Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh
I shot down the dove
Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh
I shot down the dove
Ooo-ooo-oooh
