Just Like A Man

The words were in my head

The gun was on the shelf

Found the ammo in his pocket

I felt like someone else

I stalked my lover's wife

Shot her in the chest

Picked the kids up from the sitter's

Stopped for beer and cigarettes

With my husband's gloves

On my tiny hands

I walked like I was bigger

I walked just like a man

Sweating in the bed

Sheets around our knees

He whispered his plan

Kissed my forehead, I agreed

There's this creeping evil

That I'm trying to outrun

I wake up in the night

I remember what I've done

With my husband's gloves

On my tiny hands

I walked like I was bigger

I walked just like a man

Under orders

Programmed

I am blameless

With my husband's gloves

On my tiny hands

I walked like I was bigger

I walked just like a man
