AFI LYRICS - Miss Murder

"Miss Murder"



Hey Miss Murder can I?

Hey Miss Murder can I?

Make beauty stay if I,

Take my life?



Whoa-oh-ohh



With just a look they shook

And heavens bowed before him.

Simply a look can break your heart.

The stars that pierce the sky;

He left them all behind.

We’re left to wonder why

He left us all behind.



Hey Miss Murder can I?

Hey Miss Murder can I?

Make beauty stay if I,

Take my life?

Whoa-oh-ohh

(ohh)



Dreams of his crash won’t pass

Oh, how they all adored him

Beauty will last when spiraled down.

The stars that mystify

He left them all behind.

And how his children cried

He left us all behind.



Hey Miss Murder can I?

Hey Miss Murder can I?

Make beauty stay if I,

Take my life?

Whoa-oh-ohh



What's the hook, the twist

Within this verbose mystery?

I would gladly bet my life upon it.

That the ghost you love, your ray of light

Will fizzle out without hope.

We're the empty set just floating through, wrapped in skin

Ever searching for what we were promised.

Reaching for that golden ring we'd never let go,

but who would ever let us put put our filthy hands upon it?



Hey Miss Murder can I?

Hey Miss Murder can I?

Make beauty stay if I,

Take my life?

Whoa-oh-ohh



Hey Miss Murder can I?

Hey Miss Murder can I?

Make beauty stay if I,

Take my life?

Whoa-oh-ohh
