In Memory Of – Back-Room Bride lyrics

Break apart your world.
It's not like it was intact anyway.
Scalping wielding hands.
Trembling from massive disarray.
Look inside your thoughts. Is this who you thought you'd be? All the way in the end. In the end.

This black cloud in my head.
It blocks out all reason
In that moment I'm dead but I do not mean it

You are my back-room bride
And I will love you forever.
But no one will ever know. (Your broken wings won't fly away)
You are my back-room bride
And I will love you forever.
But no one will ever know.
(Will ever know)

OH! Your eyes are open, but you won't see.
OH! Your mouth is moving, but you won't speak.
A word about what goes on (behind closed doors)
Battered and beaten but you're coming back for more.
A broken record of a woman screaming. (Over and over)
The poison in your veins is me (I'll kill her cuz I love her)

You are my back-room bride
And I will love you forever.
But no one will ever know. (Your broken wings won't fly away)
You are my back-room bride
And I will love you forever.
But no one will ever know.
(Will ever know)

Where you going? Come back!

The holes that line the walls are all that remain. (All the remain)
I sit alone in the dark and realize I'm to blame. (To blame)
