Verse 1

Beautiful in the dress

I laid out for you

Let your hair down the

way you always used to

The tile is cold

the tap is dripping

As I go to rinse

my hands of you

And watch the

pieces one by one

Wash away down the drain

Refrain

I’ll fake this morning

at your funeral

Dressed in black and

trying not to laugh

Chorus

Sleep tight my dear

This will be your

last night here

Breathing among the living

I’ve got some plans for you

Sweet dreams my love

It will all be over soon

We’re just waiting

for the poison

In your blood to

reach your heart

Post chorus: --G#m(hold)

Verse 2

So cold and pale

laid out before me

So weak and frail

quiet as can be

Peacefully sleeping

for all eternity

No one will

ever suspect me

Fingerprints and DNA

won’t give me away

(Repeat Refrain and Chorus and Post Chorus x3)

Bridge

I brought your

favourite flowers

Your mother said you

would have loved them

I’ll read your

favourite poem out loud

And I’ll break down

I’ll break down

You said that I don’t feel

And that’s why you

could not live with me

I don’t feel the least

bit sad right now

How’s that for irony?

(Repeat Refrain)

I can't Help not to laugh

(Repeat Chorus)
