Song lyrics
Rest in peace girl, your death is such a shame
The paper said, a bullet got in your way
But I smell foul play, possible poisoning
I had to bring you in for questioning
I went to your grave, dug up your body
Brought it to my house, where you lay

So let's play doctor babe, we'll operate today
Incisions must be made
You could help solve this case, for me

I headed downtown, to share what I had found
It's not a suicide, it's a crime
I have a witness, it's clearly evident
There had to be someone else present
After time of death
Poisons in stomach
How could she pull it if she's dead

So let's play doctor babe, we'll operate today
Incisions must be made
You could help solve this case
We need a scalpel now, under white lights you lay
We've got to hurry up, before the flesh decays away, away

I'll catch the murderer and send him away
I'll get the evidence from your last day

(your last day....)

So let's play doctor babe, we'll operate today
Incisions must be made
You could help solve this case
We need a scalpel now, under white lights you lay
We've got to hurry up, before the flesh decays away, away

well everyone is saying that this song is about someone trying to prove that the girl didnt suicide, and it was a murder case.

Thats too obvious, thats not a senses fail song, they use more meaningful lyrics.

I think it has a more deeper meaning. Im not sure; probably its about a brokenhearted girl which was dumped by a moron ex-bf, a total jerk (the murderer) and the other guy who is totally into her thats trying to fix her or something like that.

I guess im wrong in this one, but what im sure of, its that this song is not about a simple suicide-murder case

I've been thinking about this song a lot, and I want to know if anyone was interpreting the lyrics the same as me:

I think this song is about a relationship that ended wrong (haha, it's Emo, what else could it be about?), but the singer doesn't understand why it ended and he thinks that she fell in love with someone else while he was with her. I'm getting this from lyrics like "It's not a suicide (she didn't do it on her own) it's a crime (she fell in love with another guy." "I'll catch the murderer and send him away (find out who he is), I'll get the evidence from your last day (look over the end of the relationship to see what signs there were)" and especially "At the time of death, poison's in stomach, how could she pull it if she's dead (the other guy was already with her when she was with him, he was the poison and was what killed the relationship."

I don't know, I could be wayyy off base, but this has just been stuck in my head for a while. If you want to tell me I'm a moron or tell me I'm a genius feel free to email me at hines182@yahoo.com or AIM at HINES182.

The song is very good, I got hooked fist time I've heard it too. so yeah .. but still, I can't really figure the meaning of the song.. so yeah it's probably just a random story of a girl who everyone says she committed suicide when the truth is she was murdered
my Favorite bit is;
I'll catch the murderer and send him away
I'll get the evidence from you last day

Senses Fail are Amazing! .. one of the best Emo/Punk Bands.

I really do like Senses Fail and everything else about this song is great...but the lyrics. The lyrics are absolutely terrible. Senses Fail completely abandoned their pourring your heart into a micrphone lyrics for this? Buddy's voice is still amazing and the rhythym and melody of this song are incredible.
