His Name Is

Peter, his name is.
He's the reason I am this.
He's the reason my heart beats,
And my heart beats like lead.
He can't leave my head.

Peter, his name is.
He's the reason I am this.
He's the reason I see things,
And I see now everything in darkness.
Everything is so lifeless.

Peter, his name is.
I will never forget this name,
Its echo leaves me insane.
My soul bleeds a river,
Then my eyes water.

Peter, his name is...
Peter, his name is...
