Miss Maiden, might I compare you to that of the guillotine? Your swooping grace like the edge of a shining silvery blade that curves and cuts across the sky so seductively slitting the throat of the horizon From the threshold of dreams to bring a new day Where we feed our blood back into the monotonous machine then drop to our knees and pray for divine intervention My femme fatale, Could you take me out of this? to break cycle before you wax away You know you were always my favorite deity, *Artemis, Artemis You’re the art I miss from a life unfulfilled From the music* The untold story agonizing inside writhing for a release So I’m drawing you down to this plane to hunt me as a willing sacrifice. Won’t you drop from the sky and come blow my mind? Just leave my head in the basket.
