Dagger

If I could look down

From the vantage of an enraged god

I'd pass judgement on your betrayal

Proceed with your punishment

Scratch that apologetic smile

From your beautiful face

Convert my falling tears to daggers that impale you

Pierce the flesh I love

And drive the life from your body

The lovely body I've held to mine

Our last moments filled with pain

And unspeakable pleasure

Our last moments filled with pain

And unspeakable pleasure

I would lick your wounds

And kiss the blood from your eyes

Our bodies entangled like lovers locked

As existence fades from your silver eyes

Intimately, you hold me

In an instant of enlightenment

I'd like to think you see what's lost

The two of us will end

The beauty sentenced to death

The two of us will end

If I had the will of a god

I'd leave you impaled to die

But I don't have the will of a god

I kneel in the street

With my anger spent

I betray myself

For years on end

Breathing is so difficult

When you've chosen to suffocate
