He lies, but she smiles when she cries
Because she was fine
She washes her sorrow away
With the cyanide

Lay flat on the floor
There was nothing she sacrificed
Sadly it takes years for her to realise
Darling

He lies, but she smiles when she cries
Because she was fine
She washes her sorrow away
With the cyanide

Lay flat on the floor
There was nothing she sacrificed
Sadly it takes years for her to realise
Darling

Now just turn it off, she screams
Turn it off please!
She kicks and she pounds and the door
Until her knuckles bleed

She never recalls the time
She made her mother cry

They say she'd be still if we realised
Darling
