Now I wish it would've come to this

298 12 18
                                    

The tears slit down my cheeks,

Your arid lips kiss them away

In the place of peace

Rest my tortured soul today

Rip apart my ailment

With your final breath

Your touch brings rigid lesions

And knowledge of what's left

Your heart is made of stitching

And mine of barbed wire

A part of me went missing

Swallowed by the fire

One last dance between us

Ending our distress

I pull the trigger to your soul

And you are laid to rest

I turn the barrel to my head

Knowing what we've done

We've freed ourselves from hate called life

It's only just begun

Millions out there like us

Tormented by the public

Leaving was the only way

You've left these lovers loveless

I should free each one of you

Kill you where you stand

I could be the death of you

But that was not the plan

The plan was for the two of us

To leave this bed of lies

The plan was for us to show

The end is very nigh

The part that has me gasping

Is how you could sink so low

Don't you know I'm human too?

It's time for me to go
