The Crimson



Lyrics

I feel it welling up inside
and Robert Smith lied, boys do cry
and with blood tears in my eyes
I´m an Anne Rice novel come to life
I can´t hide the monster anymore
One can only feel desolate for so long
until one starts to change into something
The mirror doesn´t recognize .
I metamorphosize
The darkness has been biding
it´s time to claim it´s latest victim, fresh meat for carnal desires, To become what I became .
I viewed the sun for the last time


Will you still hold me when you see what I have done ?
Will you still kiss me the same when you taste my victim´s blood ?
So crimson and red
I fell it flowing from your lips
My heart is dead and so are you


and it pulses through, the desire to change
to deconstruct
all of my past failings
But where to begin
because when you live in sin
it´s hard it´s hard to look at saints
without them reflecting their jet black auras
back on you
And all I have is hope, my inner burn´s
not fading
I´ll wipe the blood from my cheek and get on with my day


Will you still hold me when you see what I have done ?
Will you still kiss me the same when you taste my victim´s blood ?
So crimson and red
I fell it flowing from your lips
My heart is dead and so are you


And all I have is hope and all I need is time
to bury in pine under six feet of time the lies I told me about myself
Claw my way out, pick the splinters from under my fingernails .
I won´t lose hope, I won´t give in
Just live and breathe and try not to die again


Will you still hold me when you see what I have done ?
Will you still kiss me the same when you taste my victim´s blood ?
So crimson and red
I fell it flowing from your lips
My heart is dead and so are you
