Lyrics

[Chorus] In another world I would slay you I would martyr and mortify In another world I would murder I'd confess and I'd do my time In another world I would sing you A crimson lullaby But all I am doing is waiting I'm waiting for you Waiting for you to die [Verse 1] I've put you on an podestal it's true Now I want to kick it from under you Your neck in a noose My heart in a whirl So let the ebony flag unfurl [Pre-Chorus] Your cruellest nightmare is my dream My dream come true [Chorus] In another world I would slay you I would martyr and mortify In another world I would murder I'd confess and I'd do my time In another world I would sing you A crimson lullaby But all I am doing is waiting I'm waiting for you Waiting for you to die [Verse 2] One push, you're drowning In the boating lake At last a drama that you did not fake Scream for a lifebuoy But I'd throw a wreath To honour what is dying beneath [Chorus] In another world I would slay you I would martyr and mortify In another world I would murder I'd confess and I'd do my time In another world I would sing you A crimson lullaby But all I am doing is waiting I'm waiting for you Waiting for you to die [Pre-Chorus] Your cruellest nightmare is my dream My dream come true [Bridge] In another world I would slay you I would martyr and mortify But all I am doing is waiting I'm waiting for you Waiting for you to die [Chorus] In another world I would slay you I would martyr and mortify In another world I would murder I'd confess and I'd do my time In another world I would sing you A crimson lullaby But all I am doing is waiting [Outro] I'm waiting for you Waiting for you I'm waiting for you Waiting for you to die
