Malu Must Die

Someone set a table where the sea runs blue

Someone left an empty chair especially for you

She wore a little smile like she knew you from before

You woke with sand between your toes and seawater on the floor

He laughed and said, is this a dream?

She whispered, so am I

Then every little bird outside sang

Maluma must die

Must die, must die, must die, must die

I'm so sorry but Maluma

Let the moon look away, let the whole sea cry

I'm so sorry, but my luma sky

Tell your ghost to take it slow

Something that you're ghosting now

Everybody says goodbye

Uh, my luma, luma

You promised you would stay until the stars went out

Then morning came and packed your bag and filled your head with doubt

There's a couple playing, there's a brother at your side

There's a woman on the shoreline with her arms held open wide

You wave like you'll be back by June, she never waits goodbye

The engine drowns her voice out

But the words still reach the sky

Must die, must die, must die, must die

I'm so sorry but my Lou must die

Let the moon look away, let the whole sea cry

I'm so sorry but my lou must die

Tell your ghost to take it slow

There's something that your ghost should know

Everybody says goodbye

My Lou, my Lou must die

Somebody is calling you from somewhere down the hall

You never heard and sound so young, you never felt so small

The water keeps on running, there's a trembling in the light

You pull against the iron with every bit of fight

And somewhere there's an empty chair

Beneath the quiet sky

She sets another place for you

And sings a lullaby

Must die, must die, must die, must die

I'm so sorry, but my Lou must die

Let the moon look away, let the whole sea cry

I'm so sorry, but Lou must die

As the story goes, a warning was told

Now only his legend grows old

Oh, my Lou, my Lou

I'm so sorry

Don't you make a liar of me, man

Must die
