Tonight...
while you lie on a bed of roses
dreaming of paradise and bliss,
I lie on a bed of nails
Tossing and turning
screaming in pain
crying in fear
while you sleep peacefully
And in the dark I wake
with fearful tears still staining my cheeks
my breathing shallow
and a wild look in my eyes
And in this darkness
I seek for peace
I search for that bed of roses
and the one who lies upon it
And in the cold moonlight
that shines through your window
a silver blade glitters
in my pale shaking hand
Your peaceful paradise ends tonight
with your diseased blood spilt
across of bed of roses
and a look of horror forever on your face
