AS I STAND
WHILE SHE WALKS AWAY
I KNOW THAT ITS OVER
I KNEW IT WOULD HAPPEN THIS VERY DAY
I WONDER WHY IT DID
I HOPED THAT SHED SEE
THAT I'M THE ONE FOR HER
AND SHES THE ONE FOR ME
THE KNIFE THAT IS HELD IN MY HAND
SHALL BE TAKEN DOWN ACROSS AND BACK
I WILL SEE SUCH A BRIGHT LIGHT
AS IT ALL FADES TO BLACK
WILL IT FADE TO BLACK
OR WILL IT BE RED FROM HELL
WILL IT BE RED FROM THE BLOOD
ID LIKE TO KNOW BUT NO ONE CAN TELL
AS THE BLADE SLIDES DOWN MY WRIST
A RED FOUNTAIN APPEARS
AS I SHED SO MUCH BLOOD
I DARE NOT SHED ONE SINGLE TEAR
SHE STILL HAS HER BACK TURNED
SHE WILL NOT TURN TO MY SCREAMS
I GUESS THAT MY TRUE LOVE
ISN'T ALL THAT SHE SEEMS
ACROSS MY ARM GOES THE BLADE
RED TEARS POUR OUT OF MY WRIST
NOW THAT I HAVE SHED SO MUCH RELIEF
SHE TURNS TO FACE AND TRIES TO INSIST
AS SHE CRYS FOR ME TO STOP
I DARE NOT PULL THE BLADE BACK
AS SHE SCREAMS THAT SHE LOVES
HER BEAUTIFUL HORRID FACE FADES TO BLACK.....
