Instead

I played Russian Roulette today
The trigger felt amazing
Your shadow stopped me
I felt complete
To destroy you
Instead
 
Just like when you say Baby
And smile bright
Like a circus light 
I love you
Instead
 
I planned your Demise today
The trigger felt amazing
My shadow stopped me
I felt complete
To destroy myself
Instead
 
Just like when I say Baby
And lie in spite
This is my right
That I love you
Instead
 
I had a Blade made just for two Today
The look and feel is amazing
There will be no shadows in this foreplay
I felt complete
To destroy Us
Instead
 
Just like when we say Baby
Turning in that perfect Circle
Like a Merry go round
That I perfectly hate you
Instead
