And revealed who the murderer is in...

Dear Lori, my lady, my darling divine
My vision of beauty, my radiant shine

Took a deep breath of the crisp cold air
Relaxed my shoulders, trying to hide
Deep feelings I had buried inside

a slip of a girl on a giant white horse

I pretend I'm alright
And put my best stance forward
Wear my brave face
Tryin to be smooth
Just tripped on my shoelace
What's a girl to do

Busted, razed, flat broke
My foot slipped off the pedal and into the spoke
Out...

There's a saga that time has...

Early this morning, sitting in my car, 
Watching my son at swim team practice,
I see the flash and splash of water
Arms slicing in perfect synchonicity.

The sun glints off their shimmering bodies,
