Текст песни
I broke into her house, saw her sittin' there
Drinking coke and whiskey in her bra and underwear
I saw him in the kitchen, hangin' up the phone
I asked him nicely once to pack his things and go
He gave her a firm, reassuring look that said he wouldn't leave
But I asked him one more time and this time pulled out my shiv
I struck him in the back and I pulled it out slow and I watched him fall down
And as the morning sun rose he looked at me and said
"You missed my heart, you missed my heart
You got me good, I knew you would
But you missed my heart, you missed my heart"
Were his last words before he died
Looking out the window, up at the blue sky
Listening to her scream, listening to her cry
A feeling of relief came over my soul
I couldn't take it any longer and I lost control
I chased her up the stairs and I pinned her to the ground
And underneath her whimpering I could hear the sirens sound
I rattled off a list of everything I missed
Like going to the movies with her and the way she kissed me
Driving into Downtown Wheeling, showing her off
Backyard barbecues and reunions in the park
I said I missed her skin and she started laughing
And while I clenched down on her wrist
She said, "That's quite a list but there's one thing you missed"
You missed my heart, you missed my heart
That's quite a list, but what you really missed
You missed my heart, you missed my heart
That's quite a list, but what you really missed
Running through the parking lot, running through the fields
Policemen on my back, something hit my skull and cracked
They dragged me off to jail, set a million dollar bail
Where I tried to tie a noose, but I failed and I broke loose
We're racing through the prison yard, shot down by a tower guard
He got me in the shins and he got me in the arms
They strapped me in the gurney, took me to the infirmary
Where the priest read my last rites and just before everything went dark
I said, he missed my heart, he missed my heart
