The Greatest Story Ever Told |
| How could this happen? |
| Am I dreaming again? |
| Her body’s not moving, I’m assuming she’s dead |
| This isn’t a fucking game |
| There’s somebody’s life at stake |
| She’s covered in bruises |
| But the truth is that I never committed the crime |
| 'Cause I know I could never hurt a fly |
| Then how’d she lose her life? |
| You’re in denial |
| What you’ve implied has burned and stripped |
| The whites of my eyes |
| But what went on that night? |
| «Listen closely as I tell you I’m not who I seem |
| I’m gonna touch you 'cause I like it when you scream |
| I want to watch you when you’re sleeping and thinking of me.» |
| And that’s what he told her when he killed her |
| That son of a bitch took away my girl |
| He’s gonna pay for it right now |
| 'Cause you might think you’re in love |
| And he might promise you the world |
| Don’t believe what he says |
| He’s not real |
| It’s murder and this is it |
| My God, you better fear me 'cause I’m gonna find you |
| 'Cause I’ll be out in six months |
| With his address and a shotgun |
| And a promise for justice that night |
| And I’ll be standing at the crime |
| So they can throw me back in prison for my life |
| If that could bring you back to me |
| Last night I dreamed we had a future and you were alive |
| It was springtime on our wedding day |
| There were birds in the sky |
| The sun was glowing |
| It was beautiful and everyone was there |
| I still can’t believe that you’re gone |
| I’m so lost |
| I’m sorry, I’m sorry |
| Don’t go |
| Oh, please God, no |
| 'Cause you might think you’re in love |
| And he might promise you the world |
| Don’t believe what he says |
| He’s not real |
| He’s just a murderer |
| I think that I’ve had enough |
| He says, «You're too late |
| I’ve got a hole to dig and you think that I’ve over-reacted? |
| She was just so cute |
| I can’t resist 'cause I’m a sucker for promiscuous action.» |
| So tell me, just tell me |
| Tell me the truth |
| 'Cause you might think you’re in love |
| And he might promise you the world |
| Don’t believe what he says |
| He’s not real, he’s a murderer |
| 'Cause I’ve been lying awake |
| From this nightmare I feel betrayed |
| I gave my life, but you took it away |
| Am I dead? |
| Or am I just breathing? |
| 'Cause you’ve stolen the love of my life |
| So you’ll be sleeping with the fishes tonight |
| Sleeping with the fishes tonight |
| Now listen |
| I’m not religious, but I’ve learned to pray for her |
| I’m not a violent man, but people can change |
| So while you’re sleeping |
| I’ll slit your throat and drain your blood |
| And mail it to your mother |
| She’ll discover what a mess you become |
| I think she might like that, 'cause I fucking do |
| 'Cause you might think you’re in love |
| And he might promise you the world |
| Don’t believe what he says |
| He’s not real, he’s a murderer |
| 'Cause I’ve been lying awake |
| From this nightmare I feel betrayed |
| I gave my life, but you took it away |
| There’s not a day that goes by |
| But you took it away |
| But you took it away |
