I sent you flowers
When your mother died
A dozen white roses
To be at your side
So you would
I showed your boss
You deserve more
A desk with a view
You’re nobody’s whore
Please, please
I slashed his tires
When he broke your heart
Your personal avenger
Till death do us part
Why don’t you
I watched over you
When you were afraid
Shadows in the darkness
A debt to be repaid
I will make you
