lyrics

you always said they'd come
that's why we had a plan
hide the gun
if you can

get out the board games
if you can find them
if they lay blame
get behind them

I'll give you the signal
and you'll give them the slip
you've always been good
with your fingertips

and if she walks in
say it's just a game
say they'll all walk out
just the same as they came in

you always said they'd take her
that's why we made a pact
if we flip the breaker
there is no going back

and in our dark
they will see how we live
on my mark
forget then forgive

when they reach the basement
we'll reach for the switch
these floors were built
on a bottomless ditch

and if she walks in
just keep her by the door
tell her no one will hurt her
anymore

and if they caught her
by surprise
we'd get ourselves a brand new daughter
one that can open and shut her eyes

we'll get out the knives
she hid in her room
we'll see if they bleed
like real pigs do

we'll leave one alive
so he can tell his friends
this is the house
where everything ends

where the grass all dies
before it even sprouts
there's not a drop of water
in this California drought

so board up the windows
lock all the doors
and wipe all that blood
off the floor

and If she walks in
