Heart of stone,eyes of ice.

I'll kill you once,I'll kill you twice.

You'll slowly die,

Again and again.

Each time you breathe out,

Each time you breathe in.

I have no guilt,I have no fear.

I am far,yet still so near.

Lungs inhaling poison,

Eyes glowing in the dark.

A heart that beats with venom,

And the smile of a shark.

I'll find you in the dark,

I'll find you in the light.

All it takes is a spark,

For a wildfire to ignite.

Carve my name into your back,

With a butchers knife.

Whisper in your ear,

How I'll take your life.

Slowly pull out your veins,

String them on the trees.

Watch you scream in agony,

And ignore your dying pleas.

Squirt poison in your eyes,

As you beg to be set free.

Deaf to all your cries,

As l nail you to a tree.

Grin into your tears,

Numb to all your pain.

The sole reason I'm to fear,

Is the truth that I'm insane.

I feel nothing as l peel your skin,

Spread it on the ground.

As hard as you try,

As loud as you scream,

To me it makes no sound.

I see all of your misery,

Hear all your regrets.

But they feel like no more than a memory,

As l snap your neck.

It seems l have forgotten,

That life just might mean something.

My vision further darkens,

As we both abate to nothing.

Scars of the heart,

Scars of the mind.

You know what they had to to find?

A corpse in the woods,

Scars covering her skin.

Cloaked in countless gashes,

Some wide and some thin.

It must've been a horrid strife,

For some cut down to the bone.

Yet on the handle of the knife

The fingerprints were her own.
