You throw away the gun Did I tell you what's to be done I need it to kill just one And you said, "I cannot sit sadly by your side" And you said, "I cannot sit sadly by your side" I try to push open the door Just to see what came before But there is a body on the floor And you said, "I cannot sit sadly by your side" And you said, "I cannot sit sadly by your side" You brought back that guitar I told you I wanted it no more It only plays the songs that no one is asking for I cannot sit sadly by your side I cannot sit sadly by your side I bust in to the room not knowing really what to do So I reach down and tear out page two hundred and fifty two It reads, " I can not sit sadly by your side" It reads. "I can not sit sadly by your side"
