Tony jones stabbed alice joneson their first anniversarydown in dallas texasin a small apartmentwith nobody presenthe pulled out a knifeand he stuck it to herhe left her bleedingon the floor in the kitchenwith cake on her fingersand her wedding ring holdingin her hand was a notethat said the wicked must sufferand he drove off quicklyto his girlfriend's apartmentbut who really suffers in the end?it's easy enough for us all to pretend thatchoruseverything's all right with the familyeverything is safe here at homeeverything's all right with the family]the beds are made but there's no sheets on>From the courtroom standtony said he was sorrythat he was sad and mixed upand he didn't know what he was doingthat he'd always love aliceand he begged for forgivenessso he threw himselfon the mercy of the juryand he told how his fatherhad beat and abused himback in grade schoolin the basement denand that maybe prisonwas the best thing for himand he said "oh god can you forgive me?" yeahbut who really suffers in the end?it's early enough for us all to pretend thatchorushow many days does it take to make us weak?and how many hours do people spend lonely?in the heart of the heart the family lay dyingthe ruin of a nation lies at our feet yeahchorus------------------------------------------------------------------------------
