Come Down From The Murder
Peel off the racing stripes
From the grey Cadillac Queen
She cannot take the suicide curves
Or the long in-betweens
Turn around turn your radio off
And listen for a sound
Like a crow
That cannot live near the ground
Channel changing your way to
A vacation home
Reading all your books in reverse
To see if they play along
Tear off that crown of thorn
From your tired brow
Like a crow that cannot live near the ground
Come down
From the murder come down
Come down
From the murder come down
It's only you that's standing in your own way
It's only you that's standing in your own way
So come down
A chandelier of precious stones
That hang in a trailer park
Praying that your day has come
Like a young Joan of Arc
Pistol whipped back to your room
And praying that you'll be found
Like a crow
That cannot live near the ground
Come down
From the murder come down
Come down
From the murder come down
It's only you that's standing in your own way
It's only you that's standing in your own way
So come down
Listen to the wheels as the hum
When you're close to the line
Pay out all your open tabs
Just smile
You'll be fine
Fairer days will come your way
Or you could just resound
Like a crow
That cannot live near the ground
Come down
From the murder come down
Come down
From the murder come down
It's only you that's standing in your own way
It's only you that's standing in your own way
It's only you that's standing in your own way
So come down
From the grey Cadillac Queen
She cannot take the suicide curves
Or the long in-betweens
Turn around turn your radio off
And listen for a sound
Like a crow
That cannot live near the ground
Channel changing your way to
A vacation home
Reading all your books in reverse
To see if they play along
Tear off that crown of thorn
From your tired brow
Like a crow that cannot live near the ground
Come down
From the murder come down
Come down
From the murder come down
It's only you that's standing in your own way
It's only you that's standing in your own way
So come down
A chandelier of precious stones
That hang in a trailer park
Praying that your day has come
Like a young Joan of Arc
Pistol whipped back to your room
And praying that you'll be found
Like a crow
That cannot live near the ground
Come down
From the murder come down
Come down
From the murder come down
It's only you that's standing in your own way
It's only you that's standing in your own way
So come down
Listen to the wheels as the hum
When you're close to the line
Pay out all your open tabs
Just smile
You'll be fine
Fairer days will come your way
Or you could just resound
Like a crow
That cannot live near the ground
Come down
From the murder come down
Come down
From the murder come down
It's only you that's standing in your own way
It's only you that's standing in your own way
It's only you that's standing in your own way
So come down
