The Murder Of My Sweet

Violently Peaceful

The Murder Of My Sweet


Faking ways to pay the bills
Making headlines what a thrill
Oh take a pill
In reality you are just as messed up as a lunatic
Sustained, insane

Be honest with me hand on heart
Before it's going to tear you apart
Will it ever be enough?
Will you go too far?

In the corner of my eye
Invading private lives
A penny for your pity thoughts
Always two steps behind
In the corner of my eye
Ther's a flash in the night
Smiling happy for the lens
Will you sleep well tonight?
You swore you'd never sell your soul
How could you make a choice so poor?
Kiss me violently peaceful

Selling out, an easy sin
Until the devil comes collecting in
Ashamed you'll pay

Be honest with me hand on heart
Before it's going to tear you apart
Will it ever be enough?
Will you go too far?

Chorus

Show me
Tell me what you want to see
Tease me
Tell me what you want to read
Bring me headlines
Tell me sweet lies
Show me
Everything you haven't seen
Tease me
The cover or the centrefold
Bring me headlines
Tell me sweet lies

Kiss me violently peaceful
Violently peaceful
Will you sleep well tonight?

Chorus
