Murder Lyrics

I was trying hard to remember her name

It's been so long since I'd seen her last

Her face was the only thing that remained

Pale and innocent on a scandalous frame

She was sitting cross legged

Her foot like a clock

Ticking nervously

It never stopped

She swallowed my face and devoured my eyes

I hadn't changed

She knew I hadn't changed

She's just a memory now

"Murder!", she cried, "You devil,

Give back what you've taken from me."

"Murder!", she cried, "You devil,

You knew me once and you threw me away."

At night we'd walk under the trees

We'd joke about being burnt by the moon

She always said she wanted everything

She held my hand tighter as we neared a park bench

Nostalgia's king when your nights are alone

I swam his seas before I found someone

And there she was

Locking eyes with a stranger

She was busy wishing she had time to change this

She's just a memory now

"Murder!", she cried, "You devil,

Give back what you're taken from me."

"Murder!", she cried, "You devil,

You knew me once and you threw me away."

Murder!
