The Brandals
The Assassin
[Verse 1]
I walk
Down on my knees and pray
I hold
On to my breath all day
I was unloving, mistreated kind
I will hunt you down with no sound
Unforgiving, bleed unkind
In our bed I'll lay down my crime

[Verse 2]
I look
Down on the bottles all night
I sold
My soul to keep you satisfied
Slowly creeping, going nowhere
Nothing seems too bright when I'm there
Wet and weeping, frozen stare
I'm ready to sleep when I hear her manic screaming
Then she said

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh you don't understand
How a woman would stand
Why don't you just

[Chorus]
Get off my bed
Just leave the money
Look here honey
I'm already dead
Get off the phone
Don't need your loving
I'm already dead
I'm already
Ah

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Slowly creeping, going nowhere
Nothing seems too bright when I'm there
Wet and weeping, frozen stare
I'm ready to sleep when I hear her manic screaming
Then she said

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh you don't understand
How a woman would stand
Why don't you just

[Chorus]
Get off my bed
Just leave the money
Look here honey
I'm already dead
Get off the phone
I don't need your loving
I'm already dead
I'm already
Ah

[Instrumental]
