A fascination with blood.

Oh, you pretty little lump,

Laying on the ground, you flail

Your arms grasp, feet kick,

 

Further, and further, you slip

Down, down to the darkness of death.

You cry out for help,

 

Yet music still pounds

Loudly, as my axe makes canals

For your sweet blood to flow,

 

Crashing on the floor.

Finally, your heart stops,

And I discard

 

Your severed body

and hang your head with the rest.

Sweet dreams, my love,

And now you may sleep.
