shot glass in hand
picture on table
tears falling off face
sweat on brow
signing papers
finger on trigger

fangs digging deep into the flesh
*exhale*
true romance
between the devil and his prey

my heart is like concrete
that can be broken in two
i have not the life that i wanted
can it ever stop?

smile, hatred
smile, pain
smile, take this torment away

i cannot destroy
what i don’t even know

so, smile, smile
before my life goes away
smile, smile
take it all away
