I must save you
Save you from your hope
Let me be the one
To tear you apart
I'll be ever so gentle
You are a ray of sunshine
In a world of darkness.
I remember how it felt
So hopeless and scared
But trusting in humanity...
My dear please listen
They will tear you apart
Let me wound you...
Ever so gently
I need to leave my mark
I can keep you safe
But you must carry your pain
Forever on your sleeve.
I hurt people ever so gently

Let me be the one my dear
Let me break you in
Please give me your hope
I live to hurt you,
To show you the world
From these bleeding eyes
I hurt you, with best wishes
I'll be here
And you will... come to me
The face of a saint
Tortured for eons.
I am an angel,
Though I have fallen.
So shall you.
