A Slow Painful Death
The minutes felt like hours on Mars
Eloquently she threw herself in his arms
I stood there sitting in disbelief
Such a betrayal could be happening ... to me
Weren't you the one who came knocking at my door
Tears in your speech
A plane taking off, destination death
She drew herself closer to him, their lips met
What if you knew what I knew
Perhaps I'd spoil your appetite
As she heads off on her thermospheric flight
Would you call me an accomplice to suicide
Eloquently she threw herself in his arms
I stood there sitting in disbelief
Such a betrayal could be happening ... to me
Weren't you the one who came knocking at my door
Tears in your speech
A plane taking off, destination death
She drew herself closer to him, their lips met
What if you knew what I knew
Perhaps I'd spoil your appetite
As she heads off on her thermospheric flight
Would you call me an accomplice to suicide
