[Verse 1]
I will not lie
I'll wait all night
I'll treat you right
Don't take my life
It's been too long
And you left me wrong
Take me to the places I don't belong

[Chorus]
She screamed out for help
But nobody came
So she picked up my gun and put it to her brain
She begged, she pleaded, she screamed
Said, "God give me help"
Then she decided to do it herself

[Verse 2]
I made her a necklace of telephone chord
Hanging from the ceiling, she opened the door
Choking on my vomit, had blood in my eyes
Smiled at my baby, said "I won't survive"

[Chorus]
She screamed out for help
But nobody came
So she picked up my gun and put it to her brain
She begged, she pleaded, she screamed
Said, "God give me help"
Then she decided to do it herself
