Crime Scene

I remember smelling wilting flowers
Lovers lying lonley in the dark
We could hear the ticking of the hours
Echo loudly through our empty hearts

Our love's a bad dream
It's a rigged scheme, yea
It's like a shrill scream,
Our love's a crime scene, yea

We believed so blindly in our vision
We danced like flames on the burning sun
But once God graced us with this awful wisdom
The Devil laughed for he knew he had won

Our love's a bad dream
It's a rigged scheme, yea
It's like a shrill scream,
Our love's a crime scene, yea
