Couldn’t have done the killing
I just fell apart
Paint me as your villain
If you need a brand new start
Often through my dreams
In early morning
You appear and then you seem
To let the storm in
Leave your weapons at the door
Leave your weapons at the door
'Cause you don’t need them, you don’t need them
Cause I'm not your killer anymore
I'm not your killer anymore
Premeditated, still on the loose
Simply walked away
Nothing really left to lose
I was your accomplice
Your second sight
I didn’t want this
Hard to tell the wrong from right
Leave your weapons at the door
Leave your weapons at the door
You don’t need them, you don’t need them
'Cause I'm not your killer anymore
I'm not your killer anymore
I'm not your killer anymore
I'm not your killer anymore
