This endless happiness overdose
This endless happiness overdose<br>
 
That it always was less of an idea and more of a boast<br>
That it always was less of an idea and more of a boast
Now you're burning in the bloom of life<br>
 
Until you're powder in the grave<br>
Now you're burning in the bloom of life

Till you evaporate<br>
Until you're powder in the grave

''Chorus:''<br>
Or you're pounding on the counter begging for more
You'd forgive her anything<br>
 
If you could win back her tender kiss<br>
Till you evaporate
You wonder where she is tonight<br>
 
As this town becomes pitiless<br>

Well, you couldn't sleep, you don't want to think anymore<br>
''Chorus:''
You listen for a footfall, a key in the door<br>
 
As the roof comes down and the walls move in<br>
You'd forgive her anything
So you didn't know it could feel like that<br>
 
Till the face turned away and the day turned black<br>
If you could win back her tender kiss
And the rain fell like a curtain<br>
 
Now it's your turn to begin<br>
You wonder where she is tonight
To forgive her anything<br>

lyrics for
Forgive Her Anything

Why is the radio so brutally cheerful
This endless happiness overdose
That it always was less of an idea and more of a boast
Now you're burning in the bloom of life
Until you're powder in the grave
Or you're pounding on the counter begging for more
Till you evaporate

Chorus:
You'd forgive her anything
If you could win back her tender kiss
You wonder where she is tonight
As this town becomes pitiless

Well, you couldn't sleep, you don't want to think anymore
You listen for a footfall, a key in the door
As the roof comes down and the walls move in
So you didn't know it could feel like that
Till the face turned away and the day turned black
And the rain fell like a curtain
Now it's your turn to begin
To forgive her anything

(Repeat Chorus)

You'd forgive her anything
If you knew what I know
You'd forgive her anything
Say, where did all your pride go?
