The Poisonous

"Boy" So lovely is the night it rolled me a pearl, for the blanket of lights so beautiful to this song of a girl, in youth it would bring sweet nights and summer springs, of all the things I wanted this angel would bring, "serpent" for you cannot see my face, for I am covered in lace, so come to me child as quick as a race, From this black body round, for your spirit be bound, a secret to the grave, for do not make a sound, my eyes you do not see, so come before me, your destiny lies here, your soul will be to me, an eternal sleep in this paradise for a lifetime it shall be.
