Lyrics
Caroline
Pleased to meet you as i mis-pronounce your name
its been an honor and a pleasure just to play your little game
salutataions as you take a bullet home
you put a knife into your heart as you were checking for your comb
I never got to say goodbye
the only question would be why you would want to make your mothere cry
You never got to tell me why.
Flip the matress and just try to stay warm
its been a very long winter but its only just begun
inside this actress is one very lonely girl who has a passion for destruction of her tiny little worlds
I never got to say goodbye
the only question would be why you would wanna make your mother cry
you never got to tell me why you done so much with just one touch
you had so much inside
so much we'll never know cause now you've gone and left it all behind.
Caroline, my valentine you are my design set free
you made me cry
you had to lie
she's buried at six feet.
(repeat chorus)
