You throw away the gun
Did I tell you what's to be done?
I need it to kill just one
And you said, 'I cannot sit sadly by your side'
And you said, 'I cannot sit sadly by your side'
I try to push open the door
Just to see what came before
But there is a body on the floor
And you said, 'I cannot sit sadly by your side'
And you said, 'I cannot sit sadly by your side'
You brought back that guitar
I told you I wanted it no more
It only plays the songs that no one is asking for
I cannot sit sadly by your side
I cannot sit sadly by your side
I bust into the room, not knowing really what to do
So I reach down and tear out page two hundred and fifty-two
It reads, 'I cannot sit sadly by your side'
It reads, 'I cannot sit sadly by your side'
