St Gertrude

You were there
Standing next to a body
Looking right through me
Rotting from the waiting

What the hell was I supposed to do?
Stabbed you on the neck, you didn't even flinch
Made you leave my house bleeding (get out)
Staggered to the door with a lame leg
And left saying you loved me still (get outta my house)

What the hell you thought that I could do?
You made me defy God so He couldn't help
But I know even Jesus would kneel
If he met you

I know where I belong to
And then there's no place like your backseat
But I can't risk everything I have built when you left me
I'll always expect you to leave like the first time you did

I left there
The corpse you put on my kitchen
All the neighbors
Are whispering something's smelling

I never changed my locks, how could I explain?
You picked my lock again with a hairpin
I couldn't find a reason that could convince someone
That I didn't want this, cause maybe I did

(I mean...) What the hell was I supposed to do?
I don't bite when it's the hand that have fed me
Since I saw you on barracks
Making people knock down your teeth
With ugly taunts, you never behaved right

How was I supposed to deny you?
Smiling with their punches looking at my eyes
I know even the Devil'd behave
In front of you

Made your way right to the top
How lonely is this? For nothing at all
You never really played by the mortal petty rules I stand
You're a kind of freedom that I will never stand alone
