You stood beside me when I was out of my mind
I broke the glass and you were there to sweep it aside
And if you leave me
Rest assured, it would kill me
I make a mess
And you'll be there to help me undress
I'll be unclean, I'll be obscene
You'll be the rest
And if you leave me
Rest assured, it would kill me
Like an oleander
White, white leaves
Of an oleander
White like me
I'm like the child in a sty
I play with fire, I burn you right out
I burned your Bible
You tried to cry, put on a smile
And if you leave me
Rest assured, it would kill me
Rest assured, if you leave
Like an oleander
White, white leaves
Of an oleander
White like me
Of the oleander
White, white leaves
Of an oleander
White like me
