By skully

This life is short you cant give it back
You took all I had, because of you I lack
A thousand skills not to shower on the world
You sucked all my power , my flag never unfurled

So I'm waiting now in a lost alleyway
Holding on tight shrouded in grey
The edge of the Knife cuts into my hand
A shadow lost in a shadow land

Testing the blade its true and its sharp
I'm glad my finger bleeds, blood in the dark
The pain feels tight almost a relief
Because It is all I've had my only release

I've replayed this moment ten thousand times
Played with it endlessly written countless rhythms
Your fall could never be perfect enough
I'll never be happy till you never know love

You could have asked I curse and swear again
I'm just like this walk-way , a putrid stench
And shits what you are and you'll go back to blood
But only after I've taken what I should

But what's that sound now around the corner
A gay glad laugh thing repulsive to my ear
My stomach falls out as the rest starts to tingle
I feel like a phone that's just started ringing

I step into the street and into your way
You don't even notice because this isn't a play
Your holding her tight, whispering and laughing together
You just don't know that soon will be never

Grabbing hold of her beautiful blond hair
Making sure you can see just so it's fair
I jerk the head back hold he knife to her throat
Just like you drowned Julie left her to float

After that there's only two things to do
I must kill me but first end you
I let her go and look at your face
Realising too late you came to the wrong place

stay out of my ends' hardly a whisper
The knife slips as easy as belief
Maybe now you'll realise
Just how much you made me miss her

The last parts easy as I turn the knife on myself
This final hours the closest I've had to wealth
And as we both die there on the street
I close my eyes and know what they mean by sweet
