i killed someone, brother

i plotted out his death

please don't tell mother

i know she'll scream, i know she'll cry

she won't understand that he had to die


i killed someone, brother

i stood him up on a chair

i tied a noose around his neck

i didn't want to share the air

so i let him fall with a snap


i killed someone, brother

i pushed him so he'd fall

he flew in his last moments so

i don't regret it, not at all


i killed someone, brother

fed him poison in a cup

he cried out for another

and i drowned him with it


i killed someone, brother

i hated him so much

i just wanted him dead

so i put a gun in his mouth

and shot a bullet through his head


i killed someone, brother

and you said you'd have my back

but maybe this time you won't forgive me

and to be honest, i wouldn't blame you
