Nero's Rome

Nero’s Rome My life died when my love lied Like a snake in the grass And just like a Garden of Eden She ate the fruit forbidden It chewed me to the core It left me wanting more Everything’s too bright in a shell without a light Like a heart of one-way glass I saw myself when seeing you You saw me, but others too I was a vampire before your mirror Night came, I became white and disappeared Everywhere I went was ground zero In a town I used to love, now hate My songs like bombs burn and break Biting, screaming, scratching Nero I will be the anti-hero My fiddle and I fornicate
