Autopsy in Lyrics

The bullet entered when she turned her back
It was a sudden attack
He couldn’t yell
He couldn’t scream
He fell to the floor breathlessly
The wound largened and intensified
He wouldn’t yell
He wouldn’t breathe
He left this world miserably


Note the heightened brow, wide eyes
He must have been so surprised
Check for prints, I’m not convinced
Someone didn’t have a hand in this


These other wounds seem self-inflicted
The poor sap must have been addicted


The bullet entered when she turned her back
It was a sudden attack
He couldn’t yell
He couldn’t scream
He fell to the floor breathlessly
The wound largened and intensified
He wouldn’t yell
He wouldn’t breathe
He left this world miserably


Metal pierced through him, a clean shot
For victim and perp, time stopped
The killer left him on the floor
They couldn’t bear to look anymore


This was just murder, not war
They must have been someone he adored


The bullet entered when she turned her back
It was a sudden attack
He couldn’t yell
He couldn’t scream
He fell to the floor breathlessly
The wound largened and intensified
He wouldn’t yell
He wouldn’t breathe
He left this world miserably


She didn’t blink when she sealed the deal
Tempered cold as steel
He couldn’t cry
He wouldn’t die
Feelings clotted as he bled out
Unanswered questions in the night
He couldn’t cry
He wouldn’t die
Struggling to figure out


Scarring in the thoracic cavity
It must have occurred instantly


She didn’t blink when she sealed the deal
Tempered cold as steel
He couldn’t cry
He wouldn’t die
Feelings clotted as he bled out
Unanswered questions in the night
He couldn’t cry
He wouldn’t die
Struggling to figure out


As for the motive, who can say?
That’s not my job anyway
