lavish
the lands ravished by you
and the barbarians of your beauty
inconsistent
drawn to you
like flies to fresh death

sipping
from a cup of the blood
that our lord left for us
selfishly wanting more

refused
I don’t want the pain that knowledge brings
I don’t want the life that dying brings
caring no more for freedom

insincerity
breeding the only thing that I care about
the only thing that I need
baring my soul for all to see

twisting
the knife that I am left holding
holding inches from your heart
but I pull it back
I don’t feel like holding it to you anymore

love
I have to move on
the knife of my love will never penetrate your heart
I see that and and so I set you free
