I know they hurt you
Cheated, burned, and caged you
I'll be just like them soon
Only with a twist or two
I can't wait to cheat
It won't be fair
When I make you laugh
Even in your darkest despair
Can't wait to burn you alive
With the passion that consumes me
Can't wait to tell you a lie
When you ask if I know what we'll be
Can't wait to make you hurt so much
With a smile to burn your cheeks
For all you'll be wearing it
Every time I dare to speak
Can't wait to cage you up
No freedom in sight
From a loving embrace
Holding you through the night
How many tears you've cried
I will never truly know
How many more will spill the night
I vow to never let you go?
How many lies have been told?
But the truth always hurts worse
You're the most beautiful being I've ever known
Oh how will you live with such a curse?
