The Assassin

I walk
Down on my knees and pray
I hold
On to my breath all day
I was unloving, mistreated kind
I will hunt you down with no sound
Unforgiving, bleed unkind
In our bed I’ll lay down my crime
I look
Down on the bottles all night
I sold
My soul to keep you satisfied
Slowly creeping, going nowhere
Nothing seems too bright when I’m there
Wet and weeping, frozen stare
I’m ready to sleep when I hear her manic screaming
Then she said
Oh you don’t understand
How a woman would stand
Why don’t you just
Get off my bed
Just leave the money
Look here honey
I’m already dead
Get off the phone
Don’t need your loving
I’m already dead
I’m already
Ah
Slowly creeping, going nowhere
Nothing seems too bright when I’m there
Wet and weeping, frozen stare
I’m ready to sleep when I hear her manic screaming
Then she said
Oh you don’t understand
How a woman would stand
Why don’t you just
Get off my bed
Just leave the money
Look here honey
I’m already dead
Get off the phone
I don’t need your loving
I’m already dead
I’m already
Ah
