Ash t-tear tray
Tick.
Broken glass, a whole
shattered ash tray on the floor
I'm inhaling toxic dust
sticking to the
haemoglobin in my blood?
And I feel greater than ever,
just like they said,
today,
this very special day
when I was going to get
married! Tied to
an ordinary bastard
with whom I should be completely besotted,
of course,
except I wasn't.
I didn't even know him
the day he brought me that
pretty little ring
and I, of course, was obligated
to say yes, I'll take you
and what was your name again?
Your age? Wait, don't tell me
I don't want to know
So I turned
to the ash, my best friend,
to the powder I could stir and
make you feel so happy, so tired
(and I left you wanting,
wanting more)
so peaceful, and I hope you are
and I hope you're watching
as I caress these
sweet sharp shards
with burning skin,
with scorches in my veins
I love
more than I hate
clearly
always in-in-in
Breathe, breathe
in
intoxication.[/font]
