i pulled the butterfly blade he gave me out from god knows where
it had collected dust from its lack of wear
he told me when he gave it to me, not to prick my pretty finger
out of scorn, error or anger
but he didnt know, that friend of mine, how my love was cascading
down the skeleton of my self, negotiating letting go
didnt realize, with in these pretty fingers
love didnt reside anymore
not for myself, my writting, my laughter
only blown out wishes, blown out dreams
and im trying to decipher, whats written in this braile
that ive placed on my skin
goodbye or hello, i could never know
buttefly twinkeling over the bloody bin
if only i hadnt been a virgin, if only you hadnt been a god
maybe me and him could have worked it all out in the end
but i was always a dreamer and he was elite
tallest of the tall men, royal men
and what am i but a dreamer with out even my own bed sheet
im just a nite walker, playing with candels over my bloodied bin
trying to decipher whats written in this braile all over my skin
only when he stoped me and kissed, did i see it was what is within
and now im lying on the floor, counting the seconds
strethching for the nevermore, the voice becons
if only i had been a virgin, and him a god
could we had worked it out before karma caught up with us
