Pinned in Silence

(shhhh) Woke up to cold metal pressed against your brow

I screamed and begged you to lay it down right now

You pinned me to the floor,

wouldn't let me plead Then the flash,

the roar, the terrible deed (oh

god, no) Now I'm left in the red,

covered in your stain They call me a killer,

they feed on my pain

My oldest companions are whispering lies

Hunting the widow under midnight skies

They follow my car,

they watch from the street

Stalking in gangs, orchestrating my defeat

They call it justice but they want me dead For the tragic

trigger

that you pulled instead (it wasn't me,

it wasn't me) Now I'm left in the red,

covered in your stain They call me a killer,

they feed on my pain

My oldest companions are whispering lies

Hunting the widow under midnight skies

Footsteps on the gravel,

shadows at the door

I can't wash your memory off this wooden floor You took your

own life but you took mine too Now they're coming to finish

what you started to do

I did not do it...

(whimper) Why won't they believe me?
