[Verse 1]
I should've kept my eyes shut
But I had to go and peep
But when you saw what I saw
Well, it's hard just to roll back to sleep
I would've kept my eyes shut
But I thought I heard you scream
And I've a penchant for violence
You don't seem to find in a dream
[Pre-Chorus 1]
The scene a little clearer
My father with a rope
And in the cage, centre-stage
It's mother who's destined to choke
[Chorus 1]
And she choke and we choke
On the words that we wish we'd not spoke
Just when you felt you had someone to trust
Out comes the man with the dagger and cloak
[Verse 2]
I should've read the novels
Believed every word
But the stories they wrote
Were so different to ones that I'd heard
I should've kept my eyes shut
But I had to go and peep
But when you saw what I saw
Well, it's hard just to roll back to sleep
I would've kept my eyes shut
But I thought I heard you scream
And I've a penchant for violence
You don't seem to find in a dream
[Pre-Chorus 1]
The scene a little clearer
My father with a rope
And in the cage, centre-stage
It's mother who's destined to choke
[Chorus 1]
And she choke and we choke
On the words that we wish we'd not spoke
Just when you felt you had someone to trust
Out comes the man with the dagger and cloak
[Verse 2]
I should've read the novels
Believed every word
But the stories they wrote
Were so different to ones that I'd heard
