MURDER

[V1]
BEAUTY HIDES BEHIND
WHEN SHE KNOWS THERE'S A BEAST BENEATH
EVEN THOUGH SHE TRIED
YOU CAN'T FIGHT WHEN YOU'RE UNDERNEATH
DON'T YOU DARE GO DOWN ON ME
AND DROWN IN YOUR SYMPATHY
SOON MY DRUM WILL BEAT IN TIME

[PRE1]
BUT DON'T GO
TRADE ME FOR SHOWS ON THE ROAD
WHEN MY HEART BLOWS
WILL YOU DODGE ALL THE DARTS THAT I THROW?
CAUSE I'M STILL HERE
LISTENING IF YOU'RE OUT THERE
MAYBE THEN MY BAND WILL MARCH IN LINE

[HOOK]
IS IT MURDER WHEN LOVE IS THROUGH?
I HELD YOU HIGH AND YOU LET ME LOSE
I TESTIFY SWEAR ON NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH
BUT IF IT'S MURDER WHO MURDERED WHO?

[V2]
COVERED IN THE STRIPES
WHERE YOU CLAWED YOUR NAILS TO CLIMB
MARRIED TO HIS FROWN
BECAUSE HER WORLD WAS UPSIDE DOWN
I'M LOOKING FOR A RIVER TO CRY
BUT MY EYES ARE COLD AS ICE
SOON MY TEMPERATURE WILL RISE

[PRE2]
SO DON'T GO
TRADE ME FOR ROSES AND COKE
WHEN MY HEART BROKE
DID YOU CHOKE ON THE SONGS THAT I WROTE?
CAUSE I'M STILL HERE
LISTENING IF YOU'RE OUT THERE
MAYBE THEN THE WATER TURNS TO WINE

[HOOK]
IS IT MURDER WHEN LOVE IS THROUGH?
I HELD YOU HIGH AND YOU LET ME LOSE
I TESTIFY SWEAR ON NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH
BUT IF IT'S MURDER WHO MURDERED WHO?
BUT IF IT'S MURDER WHO MURDERED WHO?

[BRIDGE]
THE BEST IS WHAT I WISH FOR YOU
WHAT GOES AROUND NEVER CAME AROUND
THE WORST IS WHAT I GET FROM YOU

[HOOK]
IS IT MURDER WHEN LOVE IS THROUGH?
I HELD YOU HIGH AND YOU LET ME LOSE
I TESTIFY SWEAR ON NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH
BUT IF IT'S MURDER WHO MURDERED WHO?
IF I COULD MURDER I'D MURDER YOU
