Terrible Things
"The Arsonist's Wife"
They picked you up today
You were sleeping in our car
I saw the pictures
Outside our house, not so far
The nights I've spent alone
I thought you were a liar
I guess I should have known
But you look clear in the path
Of the one who got away
It's you, it's you
Evidence will line up soon
It's you, it's you
I will never lie for you
You thought you were getting away
But you know it isn't right
So you won't be coming home
Won't be coming home, tonight
This was all we had
And you took it away for good
I can't forgive you now
I wish I could
All the nights I've spent alone
I never knew, you're gone forever
And I'm here without you
But you look clear in the path
Of the one who got away
It's you, it's you
Evidence will line up soon
It's you, it's you
I will never lie for you
You thought you were getting away
But you know it isn't right
So you won't be coming home
Won't be coming home, tonight
Never sleep again
Never sleep again
Never sleep again
Never sleep again
It's you, it's you
And now both our hands are tied
So you won't be coming home
Won't be coming home, tonight
It's you, it's you
No escaping it this time
No you won't be coming home
Won't be coming home, tonight
