a perfect lullaby
was his voice to me
singing me to sleep

he once saved me from drowning
then he ate me from inside
he'd tell me that he loved me
the stab me in my back

he'd leave me staring at the ceiling
praying for his love
which was a waste of time

he'd always hold my hand
when i was going to crumble
he said he'd love me forever
but that was all in vain

see, he was a striking yellow
and i was a purple shade
our colours never mixing
only making an ugly grey
