He did not do it literally
But he killed her just the same
It started on the very night after
The day she took his name
She stuck to her religious dogma
And was chaste until the vows were said
He purchased the ring before they were ready
In his anxiety to get her in his bed
Then they found they were incompatible
When it came to the sexual deed
And his Mr. Hyde started growing inside
Due to an unfulfilled physical need
The abuse was mostly mental
With neglect and apathy sprinkled in
She became a domestic prisoner
And that’s when the dying did begin
She could not bring herself to leave him
That religious upbringing once again
Sometimes behavior inspired by a fear of God
Results in the greater sin
They ruled the overdose accidental
Depression and pain pills mixed too much
Washed down with lots of alcohol
To add the finishing touch
He did not do it literally
But he killed her just the same
It started on the very night after
The day she took his name
JUST FOR TONIGHT,
SHUT THE WORLD OUT,
SHUT OUT ALL YOUR PROBLEMS
AND SET YOUR HEARTS’ EMOTIONS FREE
FOR TONIGHT IS YOUR NIGHT TO
ENJOY, AND TO BE YOURSELF
YOU DON’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT
WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN
TO YOUR PROBLEMS, OR YOUR HEARTS’ EMOTIONS
BECAUSE THEY’VE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF
ENJOU THE BRIGHT FULL MOON
THAT’S SHINING ON YOUR
BEAUTIFUL FACE AND COUNT THE
STARS WITH ME – ONE BY ONE
SEE THEM DANSING ALONG YOUR
SWEET KIND MELODY OF FAITH AND HOPE
LET THE QUIET NIGHT EMBRACE YOUR
KINDNESS SO THAT YOU MAY HAVE
AN OPPORTUNITY TO FEEL SAVE AND ECCEPTABLE
BUT KEEP UP WITH TIME
BECAUSE IF YOU DON’T, YOUR PROBLEMS WILL,
AND YOUR HEART WILL THEN BE SHATTERED
INTO A MILLION PIECES OF NEVER ENDING PAIN
