Manda and the Marbles - Dead By Dawn Lyrics

turn on the television

and listen to the morningnews

hear a story bout a girl i once knew

who died from the pills she used



she used to tell me stories

she used to be my friend

now she's gone yeah she's 6 feet under

she can't escape her fate



you'll be dead by dawn

you can kiss your nerves goodbye

you'll be dead by dawn and

no one will hear your cries

no one will hear your cries



she said it was short and sweet

it was worth the misery

for the sake of notoriety

she could live pathetically



last thing that i remember

she was trying to make ends meet

but reality grabbed hold and shook her

now she can't escape her fate
