Lyrics
it's just a heartbeat
loud
in a small apartment
loud
in another life
another
and Romeo won't understand 'til she
yield in the palm of his hand
Juliet turn the TV on and
wait
'til the night is over
somebody phone
somebody ring the doorbell
no-one home
and Romeo won't understand 'til he
piss blood in the palm of his hand
Juliet turn the TV down and
sleep
'til the morning's over
'til the boy is gone
'til the body's gone
'til the boy is gone
somebody phone
somebody ring the doorbell
no-one home
one Romeo down
