Waiting for you to die

In another world I would slay you
I would martyr and mortify
In another world I would murder

I'd confess and I'd do my time
In another world I would sing you
A crimson lullaby
But all I am doing is waiting
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you to die

I've put you on an podestal it's true
Now I want to kick it from under you
Your neck in a noose
My heart in a whirl
So let the ebony flag unfurl

Your cruellest nightmare is my dream
My dream come true

In another world I would slay you
I would martyr and mortify
In another world I would murder
I'd confess and I'd do my time
In another world I would sing you
A crimson lullaby
But all I am doing is waiting
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you to die

One push, you're drowning
In the boating lake
At last a drama that you did not fake
Scream for a lifebuoy
But I'd throw a wreath
To honour what is dying beneath

In another world I would slay you
I would martyr and mortify
In another world I would murder
I'd confess and I'd do my time
In another world I would sing you
A crimson lullaby
But all I am doing is waiting
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you to die

Your cruellest nightmare is my dream
My dream come true

In another world I would slay you
I would martyr and mortify
But all I am doing is waiting
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you to die

In another world I would slay you
I would martyr and mortify
In another world I would murder
I'd confess and I'd do my time
In another world I would sing you
A crimson lullaby
But all I am doing is waiting

I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you to die
