Knife Wife

Open.
Your third eye.


Staring from the table.
Looking up at me.
Slowly blinking as she's reading.

Glancing ever slightly.
Over to greet me.
Behind her silent pleas.

And I will listen to your heart.
Help me hear it start to beat.
When love tears you apart.
I'll be the one you meet.

Let me sing it for you.

Knife wife.
Stabbing the dark with the light of your love.
Can anything else satiate enough?
Knife wife.
See how it fits in your chest like a glove.
Do you think that you've done it enough?

I still believe in you.

Flickering lights of a yellow lamp glow.
Reminisce about the things that you know.
Show your collection and bear it with pride.
Time after time that your thirst is denied.

I know you're hiding something more.
Under those long sleeves of yours.
The lines that you've crossed are your curse.
But you don't even know your worth.

Knife wife.
Stabbing the dark with the light of your love.
Can anything else satiate enough?
Knife wife.
See how it fits in your chest like a glove.
Do you think that you've done it enough?

In and out, stabbing, repeating.
Blood flashes, life force depleting.
Red turning black, eyes turning gray.
Panting in pain as she wills it away.

Eyes bursting, popping, bleeding.
Face twisting, glitching, greening.
Jittery sight, rapid breath, can't stop me now.
Break the skin and let the monster out.

Knife wife.
Terror brought on by the silvery side.
Knife wife.
Killer come on, can I leave here alive.
Knife wife.
I gambled my life with loaded dice.
Knife wife.
One of us dies on the edge of a knife.

Knife wife.
Stabbing the dark with the light of your love.
Can anything else satiate enough?
Knife wife.
See how it fits in your chest like a glove.
Do you think that you've done it enough?

Knife wife.
Power ingested, feed on the fright.
Knife wife.
Horror, come get it, no way this is right.
Knife wife.
Slashing your victims, your arms and the night.
Knife wife.
Can I contain you?
Do I even want to?

All the pain has you high off the knife.
The purple raccoon skinned alive.
No end to this nightmare in sight.
Don't take me away from my knife wife.
