Should ve Kept My Eyes Shut lyrics

I should ve kept my eyes shut
But I had to go and peep
But when you saw what I saw
Well, it s hard just to roll back to sleep
I would ve kept my eyes shut
But I thought I heard you scream
And l ve a penchant for violence
You don t seem to find in a dream
The scene a little clearer
My father with a rope
And in the cage, centre-stage
It s mother who s destined to choke
And she choke and we choke
On the words that we wish we d not spoke
Just when you felt you had someone to trust
Out comes the man with the dagger and cloak
I should ve read the novels
Believed every word
But the stories they wrote
Were so different to ones that I d heard
I should ve kept my eyes shut
My mouth should ve closed
But the mixture of vomit and blood
Just crept up through my nose
It became a little clearer
As soon as I awoke
My father stands with rope in hand
A screaming mother kneels in hope
And she hope and we hope
That me words that she said won t provoke
A smile is removed and a petal is crushed
What once was a laugh has turned into a joke
You should ve kept your mouth shut
