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 fucking 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!

Time to burn and dig the whites of my eyes (I wanna tell you!)

But, 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 wanna watch you when you're sleeping and thinking of me"

And that's what he told her as 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

Don't believe what he says, he's not real

It's murder and he did it!

My God! (hear me!)

You better fear me 'cause I'm gonna find you!

'Cause I'll be out in six months with his address and a shotgun and a promise for justice that night

And I'll be standing at the crime, so they can throw me back in prison for my life

If that could 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 you're gone, I'm so lost

I'm sorry (I'm sorry)

Don't go, oh please, God no!

'Cause you might think you're in love

And he might promise you the world

Don't believe what he says, he's not real

He's just a murderer!

Come on, don't

I think that I've had enough!

He says, "You're too late

I've got a hole to dig and you think that I've overreacted?

She was (come here) so cute

I can't resist 'cause I'm a sucker for promiscuous actions"

So tell me (just tell me)

Tell me the truth!

'Cause you might think you're in love

And he might promise you the world

Don't believe what he says, he's not real

He's a murderer

'Cause you'll be lying awake

From this nightmare and feel betrayed

I gave my life!

But you took 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 fish tonight

Woah-oh, alright

Woah-oh, alright

Sleeping with the fish 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 while you're sleeping, I'll slit your throat and drain your blood

And mail it to your mother, she'll discover what a mess you've become

Well, I think she might like that

I fucking do!"

'Cause you might think you're in love

And he might promise you the world

Don't believe what he says, he's not real

He's just a murderer

'Cause you'll be lying awake

From this nightmare and feel betrayed

I gave my life!

But you took it away

There's not a day that goes by

But you took it away

But you took it away
