1.
You clung to me like cellophane, but not anymore You held my hand in pouring rain, but now you don't wanna talk And I don't understand where your head is these days I don't wanna wait all this time 'cause that's not fair You told me this would feel alright, but darlin' it stings And I can't even sleep at night without you in my arms Do you remember what you said? Well, darling I don't wanna wait all this time 'cause that's not fair When you gonna let me in? When are you gonna let me in?
2.
Run, run, run while you can Finalise your plans and I will follow Just give me a little time I still feel the sting of grief From the night you played the thief And now I'm hollow, 'cause I stole too Oh, I'm guilty, too When I heard them call, Heard the screaming from the hall I ran faster, but still was much too late And though in disbelief, Instead of ending the whole thing, I took your hand and helped you take them down Oh, I think I know what I should have done It's all over your face, can't cover it up I know what you did I saw you It's all over your face, can't cover it up I know what you did I did it, too Come now, children, dry your eyes Mama's gonna take you home where there are no lies And you'll be safe Shadows creeping closer with the devil's sigh Yeah, I know that you're afraid and you're wondering why But it's all right, I'll see you soon You hung your daughters by their necks And you wonder why they won't talk So say goodbye to alibis You know we caught you red-handed Say goodnight to your babies, oh Go on and sing your lullabies They ain't never gonna hear your twisted cries of sorrow Whoa Your hung your daughters by their necks And you wonder why they won't talk Plant some new seeds to cover their bodies "Nobody has to know," but I know Whoa, I know And everything has now gone wrong And yeah you're sorry that you did it, But they're not coming home, no You hung your daughters by their necks And you wonder why they won't talk
3.
I'm sitting in your bed and trying to remember The time when you and I said That "we're all gonna die" We laughed and then we promised that We'd "always have each other" Now an echo in my mind as I try to answer why Ooh, how could we know when we're gonna lose? Ooh, how could we know what we're gonna lose? Pretending that it's nothing, that I'm fine, And that I need nobody has gotten me nowhere And we're all gonna die And I've looked everywhere to find Pieces of you with me But it's just not the same Ooh, how could we know when we're gonna lose? Ooh, how could we know what we're gonna lose? Four days of clear skies, followed by an endless storm Kari, I thought I'd see you again
