She's staring as the lights
Are curling off into the dark
And the fuel tank's erupting
Underneath a rain of sparks
And the birds all leave the tree
Down in the corner of the park
With his neck bent back on the top of the seat
He looks so relaxed despite the heat
A green flame around his head
And she's so relieved he's really dead
[Chorus]
One day ago you wouldn't dream of it
Things happened that you hadn't seen
And it wakes you sweating by your bed
Alarm bells ring inside your head
One day of never knowing what to do
Things happened when it got too hot for you
Think of all the things she said
You realize that she'd prefer you dead
She's breathing very lowly
As she creeps across the hall
Not used to being scared
By her own shadow on the wall
And the full moon hangs above her
Like a little hollow ball
And it's bright enough to see the drips
Of sweat upon her fingertips
She knew the knife was made
To drop between his shoulder blades
[Chorus]
She's keeping very still
Down in the corner of the room
With the barrel of the gun
Illuminated by the moon
[Chorus x3]
