Just Like A Murder - Explicit
Words and Music By Patrick Harnish
Could you tell by her nails she tried
To fight for her life that night?
What did you think you'd find
Buried there, in 1985?
Maybe you thought you'd save your soul?
But just like a murder
The years have made your heart grow cold.
Did her momma pray for her
That she'd find peace where she lay?
Did her dad find a bottle
Where he drank for her into an early grave?
Did you think you'd hear trumpets play
To call her home?
Who'd you think you'd bring closure to
Because you found her wasted bones?
Maybe you thought you'd save your soul?
Maybe you though you'd save your soul?
Oh no...
Maybe you thought you 'd save your goddamn soul?
But just like a murder
The years have made your heart grow cold.
Now she unrests in earth forever
And those who'd want for her are gone.
The man who put her there is in heaven.
He counts with angels back down to one.
He counts with angels back down to one.
Just like a murder, you've come undone.
Just like a murder, you've come undone.
