The One Who Stole Your Life

I once knew you as the one who stole my life
And I knew you as the one who cut me with the silvered knife
Think you'd see the way to end your life extreme!
Always denigrating verities, supreme

Bones and broken hearts lie scattered in your train
Keep your spirits high, psychotically vain... insane

Many wanted me, but all eyes turned to you
Expectations rise, but how to tame the shrew?
And, I was thinking, I was meant to be your man
But, unwisely, I was scrabbling at the bottom of the can

Bones and broken hearts lie scattered in your train
Keep your spirits high, psychotically vain... insane

So I turned away, you led a willful life
And I took to hand your cousin for my wife
Now, I've a wealth of virtue, holding her in trust
And you're banished, witness: your plans turn to dust

Bones and broken hearts lie scattered in your train
Keep your spirits high, psychotically vain... insane

Bones and broken hearts lie scattered in your train
Keep your spirits high, psychotically vain... insane

And, now you know me for the one who stole your life
And you know me for the one who cut you with the silvered knife
Think you'd see the way to end your life extreme!
Always denigrating verities, supreme

And, now you know me for the one who stole your life
And you know me for the one who cut you with the silvered knife
Think you'd see the way to end your life extreme!
Always denigrating verities, supreme
Always denigrating verities, supreme
Always denigrating verities, supreme
Supreme
