about

A sequel song about being OK with murder at the hands of your spouse

lyrics

The truth it just hit
and it doesn't hurt a bit
that you will be the death of me
Well that's fine, I don't mind
As long as I can spend my time
With you, With you by my side

I heard from a little bird
that with one little word
You could send me down the tunnel to the light
If that's right, I won't fight
Just stay with me tonight
If I don't wake I'll die a happy man

If you're gonna do it, Make sure that it's done right
Just make sure you're the last thing in my sight

You can break my neck if you want to
but I promise you that I'll haunt you
Because you are the love of my afterlife

I know that every sound I make
Could be the last breath that I take
Just take that last breath out of me
Just keep me still, I'm not afraid
Hold me in the bed we made
One more time, my dear, turn out the lights

And in that darkened place, I will only see your face
That's all I need to make my life complete

You can break my neck if you want to
but I promise you that I'll haunt you
and I will be the lover of your dreams

I won't make a scene
I promise I won't scream
If you could get it done by squeezing
I guess that I win
Cause in that other song we sing
I get to be the first one that is leaving

If you're gonna do it, Make sure that it's done right
Just make sure you're the last thing in my sight

You can break my neck if you want to
but I promise you that I'll haunt you
Because you are the love of my afterlife
