What felt like fate was just a chance meeting,

Could have been forever.

Honestly fleeting.

Well you fled the scene of the crime, with no guilty conscience?

I won't be the one with the broken heart.

 

Seems the gun was in my hand all along.

Holding the trigger, pointing at you, pointing at me.

We swore our undying allegiance.

Now you yearn to be set free?!

Of this oath we swore; of love and life.

Oh what a beautiful way to die,

At the hands of my beloved.

 

Somehow you got under my skin,

A lethal poison, setting in.

Somehow you've made me feel like I'm alone.

But I'll paint you in my poetry, and hope the world will forgive me,

For my biggest sin.

 

With my tired bones and aching flesh:

I'll tear your heart out of your chest.

Maybe I can save your soul.
