As the blood flowed

Lorraine knew 

That there'd be nobody coming

Nobody's coming

As the blood flowed

Lorraine knew

That there'd be nobody coming 



The call came in

Lorraine shot down

Her husband pulled the trigger 

And then he blew his brains out 

At the other end 

The police took a call 

They didn't believe

That he was dead at all 

So they wouldn't help her 

And she knew 



It had been 20 years 

Since they fell in love

He's brought a lot of pain

But now he's brought a lot of blood

And he's taken more

Than his share



We can't lose a life

The police chief said 

There's an armed man in there

Who'd be better off dead 

As Lorraine bled from the legs



And as the blood flowed

Lorraine knew

That there'd be nobody coming

Nobody's coming 

As the blood flowed Lorraine knew 

That there'd be nobody coming



Speak to me now

But all she could say 

Was, I don't want to die like this 

So they said they're on their way 

But they never heard 

That she was Lorraine

So they didn't let her die

With even her name

As she left us all in pain



And as the blood flowed

Lorraine knew 

That there'd be nobody coming 

Nobody's coming 

As the blood flowed 

Lorraine knew 

That there'd be nobody coming
