little black mess

Little black mess -Shivaree
I should try to be good forever and ever amen
And so Ill touch wood and hope I dont get caught again
Without my lines and off the mark
Looking for signs I cant see here in the dark
My opening wont be a great success
Till you come get me out of this little black mess
Ill play my part Ill say never ever again
Then cross my heart cry until you say when
A little cheat while you turn away
Things we repeat one more time day after day
Ive lost my appetite so none the less
It fits like a glove now my little black mess
Whos to say if well know
When its time for this old thing to go
And so if Im good could you forgive how Ive been
You misunderstood now if youd just let me begin to put on my face
Ill put on the room go take my place once again then we can resume
Its true Im sure to die out here unless
You come get me out of this little black mess
Please come help me out of this little black mess
