+ Lyrics +

(dedicated to Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman-murdered by OJ Simpson in Brentwood, California)


Act I: (Nicole speaks to OJ)

You can stay or you can go
Do you love me, heaven knows
Will I let you draw me in
To your battlefield again

Another ride upon your rollercoaster brain
Another bug just flying right back to your flame

Wouldn't you want a love like that
Wouldn't you want a love like that

I will keep my pride unseen
Wash it down with gasoline
Between a heart and a fist
Lives the pain a junkie
Just can't resist

Every wicked word that keeps you satisfied
Every chance to heal would always be denied

Wouldn't you want a love like that
Wouldn't you want a love like that

Act II: (Ron Goldman speaks to OJ)

Picture perfect
In an ugly kind of way
Like a statue
Like a begger in Bombay

Your Picasso
Hides a crack in your wall
Like a prophet
Who never speaks at all

Like a dam slowly breaking
Like a vulture on the wing
The worm turns over
And nobody hears a thing

Like a thief and an actor
Work at mutilating speed
Would you kill your lover
For anything you need

Stop and listen
And tell me what you see
Right beside you
Such a pretty casualty

Can you hear the sound
That silence makes
Just another life
That someone's gonna take

Chorus
