Dolly

i found a little doll
to be my friend
i dress her all in red
and we pretend
we're ladies looking out
for a good time

my doll and i out dancing
we're staying out all night
pink lipstick on her eyes
my skirt too big one size
i was never very good at this

my doll and i we're coming home
i'll never have to be alone
even in my room she's there
sleeping by my side

my doll and i we're tuckered out
partying all night can wear you down
so i cover her up in cotton sheets
i really hope she'll get some sleep
my dolly keeps me company



and mostly i don't mind
but i wonder at times
why won't my dolly cry?
or breath, or close her eyes?

my little doll was gone 
before i found her
before i made her mine
 my doll was dead
so i dress her all in red
to show her blood
and we pretend
that we're the best of friends
and she's alive
and she is mine
until our end until the end until the end

so when my last breath leaves me
and my eyes no longer close
and my skin begins to crumble
and when i'm all alone
will you make me your friend?
paint my face and take me out

will you tuck me in at night?
wake me up at morning's light?
will you dress me up in red?
will you pretend that i'm not dead?
