Snakes & Scales

Slithering toward forever,
with your shimmery scales,
I'd watch you fall apart.
stand by me and break my heart,
watch me fall apart.

Deceiving my better judgment,
sink it in, your teeth,
poisoning me,
watch me revel in your darkness,
break my heart.
Assumptions and conclusions apart,
frugal and charming,
break, break, break my heart.
Watch me, watch me,
fall apart.

Oh snakes and scales,
deceitful, craving heart,
I loved you,
watched you fall apart,
and now I feel you all around me,
your blade was shredding sharp around my breaking heart.
