| For reasons too cruel |
| They hide in the throats of cowards who wait |
| In the shadows with knives for fools |
| Angry words lie still on the script |
| And wait for their scene |
| They leap from the lips of lovers' betrayal |
| Too bitter to blame on caffeine |
| Love waved a white flag |
| Fear ran her through |
| What could I do? |
| I washed my robe in the river |
| I washed my hands in the rain |
| I washed my robe in the river |
| I cursed the crime and the stain |
| Wicked words embrace the darkness |
| For reasons too cruel |
| They hide in the throats of cowards who wait |
| In the shadows with knives for fools |
| Angry words lie still on the script |
| And wait for their scene |
| They leap from the lips of lovers' betrayal |
| Too bitter to blame on caffeine |
| Love waved a white flag |
| Fear ran her through |
| What could I do? |
| I washed my robe in the river |
| I washed my hands in the rain |
| I washed my robe in the river |
| I cursed the crime and the stain |
| I washed my robe in the river |
| I washed my hands in the rain |
| I washed my robe in the river |
| I cursed the crime and the stain |
| Love waved a white flag |
| Fear raised a gun |
| What have I done? |
| I washed my robe in the river |
| I washed my hands in the rain |
| I washed my robe in the river |
| I cursed the crime and the stain |
