One Hundred Metres
Why did you have to cause a fight
Why could we just not get along
No one saw you drink so much
No one saw you start to struggle
You didn't have to cause a scene
You didn't have to scream and shout
You didn't bring this on yourself
You know it doesn't matter squat
You know he watched you from afar
You know he was awaiting
You know he saw us make a scene
He started contemplating
You know he likes to hear you scream
He is a creature of the night
And now I know I should of gone
But nothing seems to matter
And I think of the day you died
And I lie a hundred metres home
And I think of the day you died
And I cry am I still waiting here
Did he just watch the way she talked
Did he know she'd leave alone
Had he seen us there before
DId he know we were in trouble
Did he know our every move
Did he plan this all along
Did he know the things she did
He was always just a monster
Your crying out keeps me awake
How can I stop you dying
Him dragging you just out of sight
Just where they found you lying
If I'd just listened stayed at home
I know I could protect you there
And now I know I should of gone
But nothing seems to matter
And I think of the day you died
And I lie a hundred metres home
And I think of the day you died
And I cry am I still waiting here
And I think of the day you died
And I lie a hundred metres home
And I think of the day you died
And I cry am I still waiting here
Why could I not have left you alone
Was I still waiting
Why could I not have walked you home
You didn't bring this on yourself
Why could I not have left you alone
Was I still waiting
Why could I not have walked you home
You didn't bring this on yourself
Why could we just not get along
No one saw you drink so much
No one saw you start to struggle
You didn't have to cause a scene
You didn't have to scream and shout
You didn't bring this on yourself
You know it doesn't matter squat
You know he watched you from afar
You know he was awaiting
You know he saw us make a scene
He started contemplating
You know he likes to hear you scream
He is a creature of the night
And now I know I should of gone
But nothing seems to matter
And I think of the day you died
And I lie a hundred metres home
And I think of the day you died
And I cry am I still waiting here
Did he just watch the way she talked
Did he know she'd leave alone
Had he seen us there before
DId he know we were in trouble
Did he know our every move
Did he plan this all along
Did he know the things she did
He was always just a monster
Your crying out keeps me awake
How can I stop you dying
Him dragging you just out of sight
Just where they found you lying
If I'd just listened stayed at home
I know I could protect you there
And now I know I should of gone
But nothing seems to matter
And I think of the day you died
And I lie a hundred metres home
And I think of the day you died
And I cry am I still waiting here
And I think of the day you died
And I lie a hundred metres home
And I think of the day you died
And I cry am I still waiting here
Why could I not have left you alone
Was I still waiting
Why could I not have walked you home
You didn't bring this on yourself
Why could I not have left you alone
Was I still waiting
Why could I not have walked you home
You didn't bring this on yourself
