The bathwater is turning scarlet red.
I wonder what you will think
when you will find me dead.
Never would’ve missed you if you hadn’t left.
Never would’ve loved you if you hadn’t said goodbye.
But very soon you will wonder why,
you abandoned me here to die.
One of these days,
One of these days.
The scent of blood lingers in the room.
Will my death bring you possible doom?
Never would’ve been obsessed if you hadn’t left.
Never would’ve loved you if you hadn’t said goodbye.
But very soon you will wonder why,
you abandoned me here to die.
One of these days,
One of these days.
This scalding blanket of vulnerability
Is giving me more security.
Never would’ve adored you if you hadn’t left.
Never would’ve loved you if you hadn’t said goodbye.
But very soon you will wonder why,
you abandoned me here to die.
One of these days.
One of these days,
You will miss me.
