Lyrics

Well there's a house on the block that's empty now that Dominique's gone

Describing an empty house on the block after Dominique has left.

Well there's a house on the block that's empty now that Dominique's gone

Reiteration of the emptiness in a house due to Dominique's absence.

Now her dogs are alone and there's no one to watch her TV

Depicting the loneliness of Dominique's dogs and the vacant atmosphere without her.


Dear Dominique I wrote to tell you you're delightful

The speaker addresses Dominique, expressing admiration or affection.

Still I know want a strangle or a mouth full

Conflicted feelings are expressed, with violent thoughts or frustrations.

Of gasoline or to be tied up and stoned

Extreme emotions, contemplating harm or punishment, possibly metaphorical.

I wrote to tell you that I hope you're feeling better

Expressing a wish for Dominique's well-being despite the conflicted emotions.

Self addressed stamped envelope stuffed with your own death letter

Imagining a disturbing scenario, sending a letter of self-harm to Dominique.

Written in blood and in your own handwriting

Further details on the disturbing letter, written in blood and her handwriting.

There's a house on the block that's empty now that Dominique's gone

Repetition of the empty house theme after Dominique's departure.


Well there's a house on the block that's empty now that Dominique's gone

Reiteration of the emptiness in a house due to Dominique's absence.

Well there's a house on the block that's empty now that Dominique's gone

Repetition for emphasis on the vacant house and Dominique's departure.

Now her dogs are alone and there's no one to watch her TV

Repeating the loneliness of Dominique's dogs and the vacant atmosphere without her.


Well 13524 Park and East Boulevard

Providing a specific location, possibly related to Dominique.

Your last stroll down the block was in the trunk of a car

Hinting at a dark incident involving Dominique in a car trunk.

I must admit that we never thought you'd go this far

Expressing surprise or disbelief at the severity of Dominique's actions.

Dear Dominique well I hope you're feeling better

Wishing well to Dominique despite the previous disturbing references.

You look so cute writing out your own death letter

A darkly humorous comment on Dominique writing her own death letter.

Well now there's no one to watch your TV

Highlighting the absence of anyone to watch Dominique's TV.


Well there's a house on the block that's empty now that Dominique's gone

Reiteration of the emptiness in a house due to Dominique's absence.


Dear Dominique you have a bold imagination

Addressing Dominique's imaginative nature, possibly sarcastically.

The countless ways you thought to die no hesitation

Commenting on Dominique's elaborate thoughts about death without hesitation.

Fantasize long enough, you know it just might come true

Suggesting that dwelling on dark thoughts might manifest them in reality.


Well there's a house on the block that's empty now that Dominique's gone

Reiteration of the emptiness in a house due to Dominique's absence.


Well there's a house on the block that's empty now that Dominique's gone [Repeat x6]
