Sometimes Death is better

lyrics

Her best work

She did her best work in the rain
did her crying on the train
she was looking thin
there was nothing left for him

She said
He’s driving me insane
I don’t want to explain
Not In the back of this train
I do my best work in the rain

She’d found an alpha male
Who taught her how to fail
He said she was a disaster
She’d found an alpha male
Who should be locked up in jail
Girl, Are you a Slave or master

I know you’ve had a hard day
But you can’t make him go away
You are a victory roller
He’s not your controller

So with her best friend Lorraine
She blew out his brains
Now on this Westbound train
She’s cast off her chains
did her best work in the rain.
