CRIMSON PEAK

From the gothic estates and the tragic mistakes
First degree murder so avant-garde
When true love becomes the ghost of the phantom strings
Echo in early mourning after dark

I love you so much
But it's time to say goodbye

Bloody footprints in the snow
Skeletons discrete, secrete
The devil waits for us below
Haunted halls of Crimson Peak

"To whoever finds this,
know that they are killing me"

One of my greatest lies was my next alibi
Come hither, love, to feed the machine
A valentine cut free from the shackles, lovely
Keep your heart in a jar next to your spleen

I love you so much
But it's time to say goodbye

Bloody footprints in the snow
Skeletons discrete, secrete
The devil waits for us below
Haunted halls of Crimson Peak

  you fell for me so hard
   my devilish good looks
   and a wolfish smile
   underneath the vile
   royalty by the book
   UNTIL DEATH DO US PART

I must have you
Your blood is nigh
The nadir comes

IT'S TIME TO DIE

I love you so much
But it's time to say goodbye

Bloody footprints in the snow
Skeletons discrete, secrete
The devil waits for us below
Haunted halls of Crimson Peak
Bloody footprints in the snow
Skeletons discrete, secrete
The devil waits for us below
Haunted halls of Crimson Peak
