In muddy grass we stand side by side

With our knuckles interlocked

Black dresses flood the cemetery

In this cliche tragedy

But in this Bonnie and Clyde kind of romance

Tell me what would you do?

My secret is fatally gorgeous

I'd die for you

But when your precious life is at stake

Tell me would you die for me too?



The quivering liquids in your stomach

Will eat away at the bad habits

That have made you a real character

Goodnight and goodbye, quickly, quickly



Goodbyes are said and roses thrown

And the crowd starts to weep

But the irony of the story

Is when I fell to my knees

And began clawing at the dirt

In front of the tombstone

Of my bashful childhood

With you by my side,

You're screaming at
