Ice Nine Kills

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 f**king 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 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

then 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

but don't believe what he says

he's not real

it's murder and this is it

prepare for the day i find you

this is your last chance

cause i'll be out in six months with his address and a shotgun

and a promise for justice that night

i'll be standing at the crime

so they can throw me back in prison for my life

if it would 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 your gone i'm so lost

i'm sorry don't go

oh please god no

i think that i've had enough but

he says, "your too late

i've got a hole to dig

and you think that i've over-reacted

she was so cute? i couldn't resist cause i'm a sucker for promiscuous action.

cause you might think you're in love

and he might promise you the world

but don't believe what he says

he's not real he's a murderer

cause i've been lying awake

scared from this nightmare and i feel betrayed

cause i'd give her my life

but you'd take it away

am i dead

or am i still breathing

cause you've stolen the love of my life

so you'll be 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 when you're sleeping

i'll slit your throat and drain your blood

and mail it to your mother

so she'll discover what a mess you become
