You are a woman I am a man
Bury me

And I couldn't stand to be your man

I couldn't stand to be your man
Alone

Why must I love what I must destroy?
I was sent to be your man
Yes I was sent to be your man
I was sent to be your man

Marry me
So we may snuff out everything we've ever cared about
I have no doubt
That this will sting; no one will be spared
