Standing On Ceremony

Visual effects of glares paint deliberate scores of idleness-

Broken from silence
  and broke in to pieces 
  I feel myself sinking
    Slipping Away

Breathless I'm choking
  In your blood I am soaking
  Provoke in me loathing
  Exploding
  Corroding

    I feel my soul shrinking
    AS I GIVE IT AWAY!!!

Iniquity in me
  All is crimson what I see
  I bid you less mercy
  As I beg of you "Holiday"
  Standing on Ceremony
  My Greed and my Pride
  My Wrath gives me 
  Lust in Me 
  Want in me
  Died

    Placed Black Roses on my Grave
