Romantic Homicide Lyrics

I'm scared (oh-oh-oh)
It feels like you don't care (ooh-ooh)
Enlighten me, my dear (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Why am I still here? (Oh-oh)
I don't mean to be
Complacent with the decisions you made
But why?

In the back of my mind (whoa-oh)
You died (whoa-oh)
And I didn't even cry (whoa-oh)
No, not a single tear
And I'm sick of waiting patiently (ooh-ooh)
For someone that won't even arrive

Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa

In the back of my mind, I killed you
And I didn't even regret it
I can't believe I said it
But it's true
(Do I love you? No)
I hate you

In the back of my mind (whoa-oh)
You died (whoa-oh)
And I didn't even cry (whoa-oh, whoa- oh)
Not a single tear

Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, oh

I killed you
And I didn't even regret it
I can't believe I said it
But it's true
I love (whoa) I love (whoa) I love (whoa) I love you
(Thank you, Pheonix, I love y'all so much)
Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
