'They Can Never Know'

All instrumentation, vocals, and mixing by Catlett of LLL

Eyes once filled with life fade to a color like cream.
Down the center of her face flows a stream of fluid and answers to her prayers.

We cleaned up the mess with an old oil rag and we threw it in the back of the GTO, my dream car, my pride and joy, but we can’t look back. Run away as it bursts into flames.

They can never know what the two of us did.
Your new tattoo sort of looks like the tree that went up too, along with the evidence.

I can’t wait to lay down with you tonight and stroke your hair.
Pretend like none of this ever happened.
Your eyes roll back.
I guess it’s too late to fall out of love.
Looks like the cancer’s got you.

No, You can’t do this me!
The doorbell won’t stop!
The people are talking.
They’re poking around.
Soon enough, they will find the letters you write when you’re out of your mind.

One day they’ll come to take me away.
They’ll find me still with you, smelling of decay.
I’ve made some bad choices and I can’t let go!
I’ll fight till they shoot me!
They must never know!

They can never know what the two of us did.
They can never know what the two of us did.

Well guess, what? Now they know everything.
But you’re dead.
You don’t give a shit either way.
Meet you soon, my love.

This chair is not so scary.
They strap me down while praying.
See you soon, my love...
