I'll give you three wishes,
three blood boiling wishes to make you feel whole.
Fragmented dreams and bloody alibis
make up this secret, so sweet in it's deception.
I'm at the edge of all I've ever dreamt
so I'll take my moonlight sonatas and turn them bitter with time.
The ever encroaching stillness resounds
with the memories that have been haunting you for so long
But, Sugar, it doesn't matter, not at all,
because opaque shadows ruin the illusion of your love
and I'm not ready to die for you.
