Have you ever met Crystal before?
She's gonna be your best friend.
Light her up, she'll love you till your end.

Breathe her in and she'll bless your blood with sin.
Close your eyes, let her tuck you in.

She'll grace your lips and help you lose yourself.
She'll steal your life as the cold kisses your fingertips, she drains your health.

She'll hold you close and watch you fade.
She'll coo in your ear, "It's okay, darling. Don't be afraid."

The lights will dim, you'll hear a mother's mournful whisper.
You'll smile and think to yourself, "oh... how I'll miss her."
