Wallflowers – Murder One By One

(Jakob Dylan)

Never thought that I knew too much

always thought I knew enough

Why do you act tough?

Well maybe I’m just losing my touch

And where do we go?

They keep us on the run

But how could we know?

We’d only just begun

But look what we’ve done

They knew it all along

That our chances were none

In murder one by one

And do you still have that dream

Where two lovers play hide and seek?

Why would you find it

Beneath the secrets that I keep?

So why do we lie

And keep it all inside

When love is implied

And the heart just goes denied?

And look what we’ve done

They knew it all along

They’re in love with no one

They murder one by one

Tie you up with just one thread

And seal you in baby’s breath

And beneath your chest/ is a heart that needs a rest

But I won’t let you fall

They keep us here in line

Like two paper dolls

Her little hand in mine

And look what we’ve done

They knew it all along

That our chances were none

In murder one by one
