Verse 1:
Beautiful in the dress
I laid out for you
Let your hair down the
way you always used to
The tile is cold
the tap is dripping
As I go to rinse
my hands of you
And watch the
pieces one by one
Wash away down the drain
Refrain:
I’ll fake this morning
at your funeral
Dressed in black and
trying not to laugh
Chorus:
Sleep tight my dear
This will be your
last night here
Breathing among the living
I’ve got some plans for you
Sweet dreams my love
It will all be over soon
We’re just waiting
for the poison
In your blood to
reach your heart
Post chorus: --G#m(hold)
Verse 2:
So cold and pale
laid out before me
So weak and frail
quiet as can be
Peacefully sleeping
for all eternity
No one will
ever suspect me
Fingerprints and DNA
won’t give me away
(Repeat Refrain and Chorus and Post Chorus x3)
Bridge:
I brought your
favourite flowers
Your mother said you
would have loved them
I’ll read your
favourite poem out loud
And I’ll break down
I’ll break down
You said that I don’t feel
And that’s why you
could not live with me
I don’t feel the least
bit sad right now
How’s that for irony?
(Repeat Refrain)
I can't Help not to laugh
(Repeat Chorus)
