Testo Murder in the First Degree - Michael McDermott

Testo della canzone Murder in the First Degree (Michael McDermott), tratta dall'album 620 W. Surf

My hands I watched them writhe
One on the wheel
Left one sittin' peacefully against the door
I couldn't believe the things they could do
When you've been knocked one too many times to the floor
And my veins they rose and flowed with a venom
They just seemed so possessed
I couldn't believe the power that was in 'em
After the damage was assessed
Don't preach to me man
You didn't see how she was lookin' at me
Thinkin' 'bout the murder in the first degree
Seemed like the thing took me over
Wonderin' where I should go
Maybe north to the border
Maybe west to California
Maybe south down to Mexico
It struck me as being a bit too predictable
And Lord how I hate to be read
But the bars around us were too restrictible
No matter what was spoken things were left unsaid
I thought about her screamin' as I crossed into Tennessee
Thinkin' 'bout the murder in the first degree
And all I ever wanted to do was make her happy
Tell me what's wrong with that
She said it's too late now
She put on her coat and she started reachin' for her hat
So I grabbed her arm, I said why you doin' this
She pulled away, I ripped her jacket sleeve
She said somethin' I didn't realize in my shock
And then she proceeded to leave
She said my love's grown differently for you baby can't you see
Thinkin' 'bout the murder in the first degree
All the saints are dressed in black
On this gloomy afternoon
Tonight there shall be no turnin' back
The evening's bitten by the bleedin' moon
And my conscience feels like it's gonna erupt
'Cause I see her face everywhere
And my heart pounds like those coffin sounds
I can almost see her lyin' there
I'm haunted by the past
Haunted by her memory
Haunted by the murder in the first degree
Haunted by the murder in the first degree
