Lyrics for Kill

He took the stable Bred me to be a mare Made the brethren able Gave me a room I never asked him I never meant to stay He dressed the table Wore a dress to be my mare There's no permanence When you never leave the stall He ran to other wars Won't write me at all I want to kill him I want to cut his brain And when it's over I know I'll feel okay He was a champion We were riding side by side Into the frontier He left me without a ride Where did the hour go When the champions intercede? He stole the cargo Took every chance to leave There's no permanence When you never leave the stall He ran to other wars Won't write me at all I want to kill him I want to cut his brain And when it's over I know I'll feel okay I want to kill him I want to cut his face And when it's over I know I'll feel okay I want I want I want I want
