what made the truth sound like a lie
led step by step into desire
choose to be understanding
say you don't care when i know you do
i can sleep at night, but each time i try
you know i dream of you

it's murder murder murder

no time for cheap excuses like
"he can't help it" "she can't help it"
jump out of the bed & straight into the fire
how are you meant to stand it
stuck in a world that's seen much better days
you can reach for love
scream till you're red, white and blue in the face

it's murder, murder
look but don't touch
murder murder
when he wants you so much
murder murder
look but don't touch
murder murder
when he wants you so much

what made the truth sound like a lie
jump out of bed & straight into the fire
choose to be complicated
say it isn't when you know it is
always on my mind
thinking about what you do to his, its

murder, murder, murder
when he wants you so much
murder, murder
look but don't touch
murder, murder

oh murder, murder
look but look but don't touch
murder
when he wants you, he wants you so much

murder
it's murder
murder
