Love drunk and
raped with a bullet through the heart
Is this how we prove fate wrong?
With gunpowder burning through our bloodstreams
as we dance with Death and Desire against a bleeding sky
on the blood-spattered graves of Romeo and Juliet
(this is the closest we could ever get to Heaven)
Painted fire horizons fade into darkness
and all I want is to fall (asleep) tonight
because I'm tired of trying to catch falling stars
and attempting to hold onto our dying dreams
there are just too many rainy days
where I'm sitting at the window watching the world pass me by
it's so much more beautiful like this
because no one can break my heart in it's stained glass coffin
but I can't feel you anymore
(you're as cold as the ashes of our dead love)
Tragedy isn't so beautiful
when I'm being fucked up against a bloodstained wall
I guess this is the covenant that I made
when the halo of thorns slipped around my flawless virgin neck
and the rusty nails pierced holes through my hands
I hope you know that the blood and splinters are all for you
Love against a crucifix sunset
