Heavendetta (Avenge the Blood)

can you see this blistering heart? just look through these watering eyes and you will see how the world is killing me so softly so softly and if you look deep enough into that gaping hole that i so wrongfully call 'my soul' you will see this i wrap myself in your shadow at night to feel the warmth i long for yet every time i try to cloak myself in it at day the sunlight does the inevitable to darkness: it swallows your shadow to follow is to be alone (with you) the loneliness keeps me alive and through these watering eyes i see you i see you by candlelight writing my name in blood your blood how i long to sit at your side the chain (locked to the hole in your wrist) to be locked to my blistering heart this world is the emptiness the sadness that we all connect with this world is sadly our home (for now) your blood is the wine that intoxicates me these blades of glass surround my grave in that infinite meadow we call life i killed the man yes, i killed the man who killed me first
