interlude IV (Showtime)

We're finally free
Welcome home
It's just you and me now
Standing alone
The world is ours

No, it isn't
Get in the car
This isn't finished
What?

Even though the kid's dead
I'm still seeing red
I'm just a shell of his form
That his innocence shed

He lived a good life, and he gave it to you
Oh, is that right?
You know it's not true
Look at him showered
In blood and flowers
Now look in my eyes
She still holds the power
After years and tears
And confronting his fears
He's dead on his record
For the world to hear

And they'll all think
That it was suicide
But, Christie, I know
It was you inside

I saved him
I held him 'til the moment he died
You choked him out of his own goddamn mind
You promised the world to him, a goddamn lie

What do you want from me?
Oh, look outside yourself

I won't help you take her down
Fine
I'll do it by myself
You don't need it
Oh, I know that I need it
She's been gone for years
I know you can beat it

No, look in the mirror
You know we both fear her
We're one in the same
We're afraid to be near her
We utter the name
With our spirits defeated
But you let me kill him
You're worse than Juanita

I told you to end it
It was all for the best
So I have you to blame
For this pain in my chest

No
If you won't go, I will
To avenge the lost soul I killed
You're filling your heart up with hate all the same (no)
As the kid that you just left face down on the pavement

It's time I made a statement
A pity, the city has ruined us
We could've fooled Hollywood
Just the two of us
But
Juanita has made a fool of us

You're lost
One, two, three, four
Is this what love is really for?
Is this all I get for being yours?
The kid in front of me in blood and gore

Five, six, seven, eight
Years put to waste for all I hate
They'll all know Juanita's fate
Show's 'bout to start
Don't be late
