The Greatest Story Ever Told Songtext
von Ice Nine Kills

"How could this happen?
Am I dreaming again?
Her body′s not moving, I'm assuming she′s dead"

This isn't a fucking game!
There's somebody′s life at stake
She′s covered in bruises but the truth is that I never committed the crime
'Cause I could never hurt a fly

Then, how′d she lose her life?! You're in denial!
Time to burn and dig the whites of my eyes (I wanna tell you!)
But, what went on that night?

"Listen closely as I tell you I′m not who I seem
I'm gonna touch you ′cause I like it when you scream
I wanna watch you when you're sleeping and thinking of me"
And that's what he told her as he killed her!
That son of a bitch took away my girl
He′s gonna pay for it, right now!


′Cause you might think you're in love
And he might promise you the world
Don′t believe what he says, he's not real
It′s murder and he did it!

My God! (hear me!)
You better fear me 'cause I′m gonna find you!

'Cause I'll be out in six months with his address and a shotgun and a promise for justice that night
And I′ll be standing at the crime, so they can throw me back in prison for my life
If that could bring you back to me

Last night, I dreamed we had a future and you were alive
It was springtime on our wedding day, there were birds in the sky
The Sun was glowing, it was beautiful and everyone was there
I still can′t believe that you're gone, I′m so lost
I'm sorry (I′m sorry)
Don't go, oh please, God no!

′Cause you might think you're in love
And he might promise you the world
Don't believe what he says, he′s not real
He′s just a murderer!


Come on, don't
I think that I′ve had enough!
He says, "You're too late
I′ve got a hole to dig and you think that I've overreacted?
She was (come here) so cute
I can′t resist 'cause I'm a sucker for promiscuous actions"
So tell me (just tell me)
Tell me the truth!

′Cause you might think you′re in love
And he might promise you the world
Don't believe what he says, he′s not real
He's a murderer

′Cause you'll be lying awake
From this nightmare and feel betrayed
I gave my life!
But you took it away

"Am I dead?
Or am I still breathing?"
′Cause you've stolen the love of my life
So you'll be sleeping with the fish tonight
Woah-oh, alright
Woah-oh, alright
Sleeping with the fish tonight

Now listen
"I′m not religious but I′ve learned to pray for her
I'm not a violent man, but people can change
So while you′re sleeping, I'll slit your throat and drain your blood
And mail it to your mother, she′ll discover what a mess you've become
Well, I think she might like that
I fucking do!"

′Cause you might think you're in love
And he might promise you the world
Don't believe what he says, he′s not real
He′s just a murderer

'Cause you′ll be lying awake
From this nightmare and feel betrayed
I gave my life!
But you took it away

There's not a day that goes by
But you took it away
But you took it away
