Lyrics
EMOTIONAL HOMICIDE
(Verse 1)
Have you ever loved someone
Its seeped into your bones?
That love doesn?t go away
With mere sticks or stones
You try to ask yourself
what?s good for your life
You try to break free
But it cuts like a knife
(Verse 2)
You dangle on the net now and see the antithesis
More like God?s waiting room or some twisted bliss
You?re thinking thoughts of
?I?d rather be dead?
Then live with a man that won?t give me a dose of dread
(Chorus)
Oh I?m bored or abused
I always lose
I?m constantly confused
I realize
I can?t be satisfied
No I?m yawning or crying
I know deep inside
I?m conspiring to my
Emotional Homicide
(Verse 3)
Thrilled by you hunter
But maimed by the capture
Why Am I so vexed
By this primitive rapture?
I want a lion not a cowering lamb
Yet when you holler
I question who I am
(Verse 4)
I know where the problem lies
But I just can?t change
I?m in maze I just can?t escape
Oh its those sinners that pull passion?s strings
Is all worth the heartache that it brings?
(Chorus)
Oh I?m bored or abused
I always lose
I?m constantly confused
I realize
I can?t be satisfied
No I?m yawning or crying
I know deep inside
I?m conspiring to my
Emotional Homicide
(Bridge)
OHH, I sit up on the fence all alone
Perplexed and Distressed on my own
Knowing I have nowhere to go . . . . .
(Chorus)
Oh I?m bored or abused
I always lose
I?m constantly confused
I realize
I can?t be satisfied
I?m yawning or crying
I know deep inside
I?m conspiring to my
Emotional Homicide
I know deep inside
I?m conspiring to my
Emotional Homicide
