lyrics

Don't call a doctor, she's dead, said the man by the fire
Her heartbeat is gone, and she's wearing a wire
Shut that door, said the host with a shout
Nobody leaves until we figure this out

The boy stands and then he sinks to his knees
He covers his face so that nobody sees his despair
A young lady in pearls
Dead by the foyer as onlookers stare

Now it's too late, too late to let go, I'm gonna turn you inside out
And when you fall, china doll, I'll be there too
Don't you know I'll never leave you, read the signs in my own blood
Secret love, I'm cutting you open to see what you're really made of

Silence stems the violence, as the constables pound on the door
So run now, get out somehow, says the doctor, they'll catch you, they'll kill you for sure
shakes her wake up, baby wake up, oh please open your eyes,
He pleads as he whispers and strangers take pictures
He drops two train tickets and cries

Diana...
Diana, please don't go
I need you here now
I can't do this thing on my own.
