Roses
Like a building condemned
Serene and beautiful
Like scarlet ambrosia from her neck
Roses
Like an unlit candlestick
Sullen and forgotten
Like the silver chalice in my grip
Roses
Like fallen snow and tainted ice
Rooftops speak of desire
Like words of affection spoken thrice.
Roses
Like frozen eyes are still pristine
Whispers of sympathy
Arising only from my Christine.
In darkened corners
I watch, waiting and silent.
I am not ever to join the light
But to you my heart has been lent.
In darkened corners
I cry, mourning yet silent.
I am not ever to be content
For to you my heart has been lent.
In darkened corners
How much for you I yearn.
I cannot live in this agony
I beseech my heart be returned.
THIS IS NOT MY SONG:
Well they encourage your complete cooperation,
Send you roses when they think you need to smile.
I can't control myself because I don't know how,
And they love me for it honestly, I'll be here for a while.
So give them blood, blood, gallons of the stuff!
Give them all that they can drink and it will never be enough.
So give them blood, blood, blood.
Grab a glass because there's going to be a flood!
A celebrated man amongst the gurneys.
They can fix me proper with a bit of luck.
The doctors and the nurses they adore me so,
But it's really quite alarming cause I'm such an awful fuck. (Oh thank you!)
I gave you blood, blood, gallons of the stuff,
I gave you all that you can drink and it has never been enough.
I gave you blood, blood, blood,
I'm the kind of human wreckage that you love!
There once was a killer who'd strangle with twine,
None could stop her though many had tried,
And when she tried to kill me,
My fangs she didn't see,
And now that cute killer is mine.
And unto this night I shall follow
In all favourable silence,
The corridors and unlit chasms in thy chest.
Glistening from rainfall and my mother Moon
Thy neck appears not but tantalizing.
Burdened by hunger and if only another
Prey walked these streets tonight.
