Killing Him - Amy LaVere, Jim Dickinson, Jason Freeman

He didn’t come home till the light of the day

He wasn’t with her he would say

They fought through the morning and all of the day

She’d have to kill him to get him to stay

Killing him didn’t make the love go away

Killing him didn’t make the love go away

Killing him didn’t make the love go away

Killing him didn’t make the love go away

She gave him everything that she had

Changed anything he said was bad

Love weighed on her heart like marble stone

Flash of the knife, he was gone

Said he would give her the sun and the moon

Now all she has is this eight-by-eight room

Killing him didn’t make the love go away

Killing him didn’t make the love go away

Killing him didn’t make the love go away

Killing him didn’t make the love go away

She thought of him every night and all of the day

Missing the baby she did away

Blowing kisses to the concrete sky

Hoping they’d reach him in heaven high

Love weighed on her heart like marble stone

Flash of the knife, he was gone

Said he would give her the sun and the moon

Now all she has is this eight-by-eight room
