Let The Record Show lyrics

Turning tricks with absent guile

Reeling in your crooked smile

Why did I turn to you?

I only wanted a hand to pour my heart into

And now I'll bump my grind through another night

Lose my mind in another fight

Why did I turn to you?

I only gave you the chance to prove the rumours true

And now I'm paying with my

Paying with my life

I'm paying with my life

My life, my life

So let the record show

That you murdered me

In your coldest blood

With your own two hands

Don't think no one understands

It happens every day

Working life like a burlesque show

Get them off and they'll let you go

Why did I turn to you?

I only turned out to be just one more girl you slew

And now I'll bump my grind for another

Lose my mind in another

Why, why, why, why?

I only gave you the chance to prove the rumours true

And now I'm paying with my

Paying with my life

I'm paying with my life

My life, my life

So let the record show

That you murdered me

In your coldest blood

With your own two hands

Don't think no one understands

It happens every day

You're jealous

Oh, you're jealous

Why it's a simple excuse

For a complex crime

So write this on your soul

Or don't waste my time

If I'm going down

Then I'm going down good

I'm going down

Then I'm going down clean

I'm going down

Then I'm going

The prettiest broken girl you've ever seen

If I'm going down

Then I'm going down good

I'm going down

Then I'm going down clean

I'm going down

Then I'm going

The prettiest wretched whore you've ever seen

But while I breathe

I've got no evidence to prove my end

And so you'll walk away

Nope, wrong again!

So let the record show

That you murdered me

In your coldest blood

With your own two hands

Don't think no one understands

It happens every day

You're jealous

Oh, you're jealous

Why it's a simple excuse

For a complex crime

So write this on your soul

And let it show

That you murdered me

In your coldest blood

With your own two hands

Don't think no one understands

It happens every day

You're jealous

Oh, you're jealous

Why it's a simple excuse

For a complex crime

So write this on your soul

Or don't waste my time
