Hey Miss Murder can I
Hey Miss Murder can I
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life? Whoa oh oh
With just a look
They shook
And heavens bowed before him
Simply a look
Can break
Your heart.
The stars that pierce the sky
He left them all behind
We're left to wonder why
He left us all... Behind
Hey Miss Murder can I
Hey Miss Murder can I
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life? (Whoa oh oh)
Dreams of his crash
Won't pass
Oh how they all adored him
Beauty will last
When spiraled
Down.
The stars that mystify
He left them all behind
And how his children cried
He left us all... Behind
Hey Miss Murder can I
Hey Miss Murder can I
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life? Whoa oh oh
What's the hook, the twist within this verbose mystery?
I would gladly bet my life upon it
That the ghost you love, your ray of light will fizzle out
Without hope, hope. We're the empty set just floating through wrapped, in skin,
Ever searching for what we were promised
Reaching for that golden ring we'd never let go...
Who would ever let us put our filthy hands upon it?
Hey Miss Murder can I
Hey Miss Murder can I
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life? (Whoa oh oh)
Hey Miss Murder can I
Hey Miss Murder can I
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life? (Whoa oh)
That analogy also works well for the song, axbeautifulxliex, but that's why I love when artists don't give a direct meaning. It means the song is open for interpretation and we all get to make these (most of the time) educated guesses. Some hold more truth than others, but I suppose we'll never know until we are told by the artists themselves.
