Lyrics
Ex Lover's Lover
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Three heavy stones will keep it from floating
Weigh it down to the bottom, food for the fishes
And I know that it won't be discovered
'Cause I will be careful, so very careful
What if it doesn't rain for days and the river is reduced to its muddy bed?
With the corpse exposed, I would work in haste,
And I might bury the bones in a shallow grave
And the rain comes and moves rocks and the stones
Washes away all the dirt and the mud flows
Bones are exposed and well,
You know how that goes!
I wait for the day when I'll finally defile
The bodies of my ex lover's lovers
I'll pile high to the sky
The bodies of my ex lover's lovers
Die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die
Watch them die
Die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die
Watch them die
I saw you with him
You looked so happy
All of that can change, cause I am so lonely
And I have lots of time to send you straight to the Devil
I'm taking my time to plan your demise
What if I were to cut you up and mail each part to a different town?
It would take the most brilliant private eye the rest of his life just to put you together
A piece in each mailbox all over the planet
From Moscow to Tokyo to Guadalajara
I wait for the day when I'll finally defile
The bodies of my ex lover's lovers
I'll pile high to the sky
The bodies of my ex lover's lovers
I wait for the day when I'll finally destroy
The bodies of my ex lover's lovers
I'll pile high to the sky
The bodies of my ex lover's lovers
Die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die
Watch them die
Die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die
Watch them die
I saw you with him
You looked so happy
That will never change, because I know myself too well
I don't have the courage to carry out my dreams
And only there will I see them
Die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die
Watch them die
Die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die
Watch them die
Die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die
Watch them die
Die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die
Watch them die
