Played like a fool I turned a blind eye Blocked by my affection I didn’t see the lie But as we all know

I never thought I never dreamed Is what you say Really what it seems You make the effort

Can you see A shadow in the dark The monsters lurking Waiting to tear you apart The blood of their latest victim

When did you insert your claws int… My lonely beating heart imprisoned… Knocked around until I can’t take… Yet still I am your slave I can’t shake this new development

I find her on the floor Bloodied and broken I fall to my knees Wondering why It was never meant to be this way

One day I found a cookie, And then it ran away. It just up and left me, It didn’t want to stay. That cookie was so perfect,

Fallen from grace An angel inside Screaming for freedom With no place to hide Slowly falling

What once was mine, And completely whole. Now wanders away, Devastatingly alone. But t creeps back,

Continuing to play Not knowing the game Lost souls withering away Causing nothing but pain Pretending to want me

Laying in my casket Looking down from above Watching all the people With whom I shared my love I never realized

Rip my soul to shreds You claws so sharp My blood glistens on the edge Don’t understand my pain Caused by your selfish needs

Sadness Hopeless Broken Bruised You tell me you know

Death and decay follow me, Like a shadow I cannot escape. I hear the screams of the fallen, In my dreams, How I wish I could wake.

Her screams pierce the night As he ravages her soul Under the shattered streetlight If only it would glow Blended in the shadows
