- - - POUND OF FLESH - - -
There is an abyss where my heart was once
Now a mere echo of a ghostly pulse
I find myself alone inside the mist
Still tasting the venom of our last kiss
Did you really have to twist the knife?
When you wanna kill me
But you're not so wonderful
Kill me...
But I'm not so vulnerable
Kill me...
Carve away a pound of flesh
Kill me...
Because I'm a part of you
Vow to me to be your one and only
But the words were as cheap as your perfume
Roses on the dresser slip to decay
As our first picture fall into the flames
Together we will burn forever
When you wanna kill me
True love once so beautiful
Kill me...
Now become so pitiful
Kill me...
Carve away a pound of flesh
Kill me...
Because you're a part of me
I made a promise
Til death do us part
And if I fall down
You're coming with me
When you wanna kill me
But you're not so wonderful
Kill me...
But I'm not so vulnerable
Kill me...
Carve away a pound of flesh
Kill me...
Because I'm a part of you
There's a special place in Hell for us
When you wanna kill me
True love once so beautiful
Kill me...
Now become so pitiful
Kill me...
Carve away a pound of flesh
Kill me...
Because you're a part of me
kill me...

Such a dark passionate write.
You can feel the pain and despair, for it is so very potent.
Brilliant ink.
