Tonight

Tonight a demon kissed my heart a shallow ease trapped in a winter breeze paved from blood and sweat a soul on the table for a bet remember I must have taken this death note and wrote sweet surrender with rose petal debris Tonight my tongue licked the pavement an awful taste but assuredly to be the final time with a lament written in rhyme a heartless dance for the martyr remember I must have swallowed the sun because the cold seeps within dripping with angel blood Tonight a song etched across my heart a sharp blade of reality a depressing clarity with no remorse nor sincerity remember I must have taken this death note and wrote sweet surrender with a faithless pen
