The other night you said
You could never love like this again
Your stare piercing each vessel
As it squired uncomfortably
Underneath my skin
Everybody knows
Just exactly what it is I did
There’s no holds barred, now
and I plan to go down with my sin
She holds her breath
Praying she doesn’t see her again
It’s own sick form of torment
To the transgressor and the transgressed
Every time a car rolls by
“Has she come to take you, is the time here yet?”
For her it isn’t if, it’s when
I gave away what was not mine to squander
and You’ll call me a liar, worse yet
but For every shred
Of evidence I left
I too left the key for your vengeance
and I hope you’ll wield your weapon wisely
For this shot,
Its the last one I’ve got
So I ram the rod down the shaft
Compressing the powder
Lick my fingers clean
Of the filth I’ve wallowed in
I’d shed a tear, but what’s left is a monster
The girl I was, she won’t come back to haunt you
She’s given up too much hope for that
