Spill Canvas - Black Dresses Lyrics
In muddy grass we stand side by sideWith our knuckles interlockedBlack dresses flood the cemeteryIn this cliche tragedyJust do as you're instructed and....Take this razor and cut your palmsI'll do the same until a river of crimson begins to flowNow drip your ruby red over the casketA funeral for my once loved youthMy secret is fatally gorgeousI'd die for youBut in this Bonnie and Clyde kind of romanceTell me what would you do?My secret is fatally gorgeousI'd die for youBut when your precious life is at stakeTell me would you die for me too?The quivering liquids in your stomachWill eat away at the bad habits that have made youA real character in the story of your now distant lifeGoodnight and goodbye, quicklyIn gentle greens we stand side by sideWith your head buried in my chestBlack veils send me shiveringThe fear that part of me is dyingJust do as you're instructed and....Take this razor and cut your palmsI'll do the same until a river of crimson begins to flowNow drip your ruby red over the casketA funeral for my once loved youthMy secret is fatally gorgeousI'd die for youBut in this Bonnie and Clyde kind of romanceTell me what would you do?My secret is fatally gorgeousI'd die for youBut when your precious life is at stakeTell me would you die for me too?The quivering liquids in your stomachWill eat away at the bad habits that have made youA real character in the story of your now distant lifeGoodnight and goodbye, quickly, quicklyGoodbyes are said and roses thrownAnd the crowd starts to weepBut the irony of the story is when I fell to my kneesAnd began clawing at the dirt in front of the tombstoneOf my bashful childhoodWith you by my side, you're screaming at theTop of your lungs, "let it go"And I'm screaming at the top of my lungs"The ceremony was not proper, there was not enough people,And who picked the music?Those melodies almost made me physically sick"My secret is fatally gorgeousI'd die for youBut in this Bonnie and Clyde kind of romanceTell me what would you do?My secret is fatally gorgeousI'd die for youBut when your precious life is at stakeTell me would you die for me too?The quivering liquids in your stomachWill eat away at the bad habits that have made youA real character in the story of your now distant lifeGoodnight and goodbye, quicklyGoodnight and goodbye, quickly
