Abandoned on the eve of war
left alone at the enemies door
calling to the darkness echoing your name
tears salty with betrayal that finally came
the hole is deep under like a visceral gap
hands that shake while my knuckles rap
“all alone I see” says the darkness now
“unexpected little one, it would be wise to bow”
“I see he has left you, turn and ran
It must be quite terrifying, please don’t cry if you can”
I will take you now and fill your hollow heart
With ache that goes deep, come now let us start
Fight if you can for I know its your nature
Welcome to the heartbreak legislature
I know you are scared, and now quite alone
And I know you are hurting right through to the bone
As for him and his leaving don’t worry or fret
Ill come for him someday, and I’ll play him like a pawn on my set
But for now sweet little thing it is your turn to hurt
And when you come out, cold and curt
You’ll have ice in your veins and a dead piece of soul
Like scar tissue unfeeling and dull
Let us begin my darling my sweet
My beautiful little fresh piece of meat. “
