Betrayal

"My love," I said.  You said, "We'll see."
And plunged your poison knife in me
No joy is lost, no memories
No lovers suffered more than we

"Just a few more drops is all that it should take."
And maybe this will justify the hasty plans you had to make
Hold my hand and stay with me, I'm bleeding at your side
How many others have you killed and stayed to watch them die?

And as the poison floods my body
Your hands are bruised and bloodied cause you know....you know

Shake me til I jerk awake and
Take my biggest dreams and break them
Feel the blood run down your skin
Think of all I could have been
Kiss me til I fall asleep and
Wait until my faith has deepened
Feel the blood run down your skin

In that condescending voice you say
"I don’t think I can live this way again."

Shake me til I lie awake and
Take my biggest dreams and break them
Feel the blood run down your skin
Think of all I could have been
Kiss me til I fall asleep and
Wait until my faith has deepened
Feel the blood run down your skin
