Circus of Love

Twisted and broken Dancing And limping Your perfect puppet on strings, Bowing And Bending In time to your madness; A tiny porcelain ballerina Spinning on a pedestal, As you orchestrate our final symphony. My sweet, Scary Maestro of monsters, My Conductor of Chaos And pain, I adore you- My darlin, My puddin. Bleeding and hopeful Here I am, Still, By your side; Your fondest hit Your favorite toy to squeeze (the life out of) Your prisoner in love; (Your good girl) Begging for just a little more. Heave me over the side Again Drown me in your molten insanity, Push me under- Just. One. More. Time. To feel the thrills, The chills, The danger; The happiness Of liberating manic laughter- To feel the helpless despair As I perform in your circus. Here I am, To beg a bullet For these lips, That praise your deeds, And pray for release, For a mutual destruction, A final comedy written in blood. I guess... the joke is on me after all... Right, Mr. J?
