It's easy to kill
That's the terrible thing
Not with a knife
Not with a gun
Not with blood on your hands
Or a body to run from

No, no
That's amateur work

You can kill with a sentence
Said soft in the kitchen
You can kill with a silence
That feels like religion
You can kill with a look
From across the room
You can kill a girl slowly
And call it the truth

It's easy to kill
Easy, easy
It's easy to kill
Believe me, believe me

You don't need poison
You don't need steel
Just make her feel
Like she isn't real

It's easy to kill
Easy, easy
It's easy to kill
Believe me, believe me

No one will see it
No one will know
Just break her heart
And let her go

He never raised his voice
That was the worst part
He kept his hands clean
And still touched my scars

He said: You're too much
With a face so calm
Like he wasn't setting fire
To a little girl's charm

And I laughed
Because women like me
We laugh at the funeral
Before we admit
We are the thing being buried

How chic
How sick
How very British of me

It's easy to kill
Easy, easy
It's easy to kill
Believe me, believe me

You don't need poison
You don't need steel
Just make her feel
Like she isn't real

It's easy to kill
Easy, easy
It's easy to kill
Believe me, believe me

No one will see it
No one will know
Just break her heart
And let her go

My mother said: Darling
You look a bit pale
I said: I'm just tired
A beautiful tale

My sister said: Eat
My mirror said: Run
My phone stayed quiet
Like a loaded gun

And there I was
Still breathing

How rude
How inconvenient
How unlike the story
He thought he had written

Because men like him
They never do murder
They just leave the room
And call it closure

It's easy to kill
Easy, easy
It's easy to kill
Believe me, believe me

You don't need poison
You don't need steel
Just make her feel
Like she isn't real

It's easy to kill
Easy, easy
It's easy to kill
Believe me, believe me

No one will see it
No one will know
Just break her heart
And let her go

But baby
Here's the twist
I did not die
I just went quiet
For a little while

I washed my face
I changed my sheets
I learned his name
Was not a prophecy

And now when I pass him
I smile so sweet
Like a woman who knows
Where the bodies sleep

It's easy to kill
Easy, easy
It's easy to kill
Believe me, believe me

It's very easy to kill
So long as no one suspects
That the dead girl left a witness
And she's coming for you next
