my neighbor
Oooo
Let me love, let me love, let me love
My neighbor held the key to my survival
The loneliest woman I ever saw
Her death around the corner
Her children screaming at her
Pounding fists upon her rotting wooden floor
My neighbor held the key to my survival
I made sure to lock the door
Oooo
Let me love, let me love, let me love
My enemy held the key to my survival
But my envy overtook my brain
I saw her doubled over
And recognized myself and said
"Perhaps I'll quit besmirching her name"
My enemy held the key to my survival
And I killed her all the same
(Time! it's time, it's time, it's time)
My neighbor held the key to my survival
The garbage truck kept passing her by
Another week full of trash
She folds herself exactly in half
Oooo
Let me love, let me love, let me love
