I used to love a boy I still see him in these rooms His head was like the summer And his voice was like the moon Sometimes he makes me heavy A deeper shade of blue And there's murder in my heart And there's nothing I can do
I used to love a boy But now he's two years dead I hear myself repeating what my father always said Don't let it make you bitter And watch while youre blue I got murder in my heart But I'd rather die instead
Somebody would've taken on a lover Does anybody need another friend? Right now anybody doesn't need I kinda like the ocean With its arms stretched open wide But I know what it means to be dragged out with the tide And to fight from going under And to keep myself alive And there's murder in my heart And there's water in my eyes
Went out late last night Just to get a little air And I walked beneath the streetlights And I saw nobody there Just a bitterness that followed me A saddening surprise But there's murder in my heart And I made me that way There's murder in my heart I can't take it, go away
