Beginnings

[Verse 1]
There's something about the scent of gasoline;
Its an addiction for the crime scene
The way the light seems to shine on everything
Right before the sirens sound
We've gone through this before

[Chorus]
And this is textbook manipulation, but darling, I've
But darling, I've heard more convincing excuses from
From red hands

[Verse 2]
"It's been a long night" she said before I hit the lights

[Bridge]
This is passion where, where you least expect it
A kind of beauty, a sickening concern
This is passion where, where you least expect it
A kind of beauty, a sickening concern

[Chorus]
And this is textbook manipulation, but darling, I've
But darling, I've heard more convincing excuses from
From red hands

[Outro]
I've fallen into open arms of a stretcher
From a second story window
Into the open arms
(Someone once said that love overcomes all things)
Falling from a second story window
(That someone didn't know you)
Into the open arms of a stretcher
Of a stretcher, of a stretcher
