She stands alone at the shore of the sea,
Boiling water, white froth against the darkness in the sky,
Across the sea, with love is where she should be,
But he left her alone to fly,
Alone.
She returns home, grabs her cash off the stand,
Buys a plane ticket, buys a gun,
Travels to the place where jerkoff made land,
To kill the man who left her shunned.
She finds his name in the local directory,
And makes her way to his abode,
To make his final history,
As punishment for leaving her alone.
He's in bed with another version of her,
Her eyes burn red as rage takes over,
She buries the knife deep into her,
The woman who looks like her.
She rounds on the ex she used to love,
And buries the knife, buries it deep,
And as he dies, she dances in his blood,
The rage dies, she falls and weeps.
Now, she stands alone at the shore to the sea,
The evil deed done, she throws herself in,
Alone, as she was forced to be,
By the man who left her to sin.
Suicide
