Off with her fucking head
2.
You've buried me neck deep in this misery, and i feel right at home So pardon me for trying to speak but I remember before the fire when you and I were merely embers I'm sorry for running, but there's no other way; I'm jaded, you're wasted, we fit so perfectly Just trust me, don't love me, we're just a memory Just trust me you'll love me much better in a grave I wanna know your darkest secret Tell me; what are you hiding from me Always and forever, staring down a barrel always and forever staring down the barrier Always; forever yours... Always and forever staring down the barrel These city lights and every street still speak your name They're calling out to me "Dont look back, close your eyes, clench them tight" There is nothing you want to see looking back. Close your eyes, clench them tight, there's nothing you want to see. As the skies part ways, so do we. So pardon me for trying to speak but i remember before the fire; You and i were merely embers I see the light to heavens gate before me and i can hardly wait Open up the gates As the skies part ways, so do we. Lover, hunter, feeder, tell me. what do you hide Lover, hunter, feeder, tell me - what are you hiding from me

Casketing 03:21
Those pretty eyes beg my forgiveness You trick bitch, I'm better off with slit wrists How many bastards did you convince that you were in love with them while you were fucking all his friends You filthy piece of shit, I want you dead before my eyes Her lips trip the guillotine, collecting heads as trophies Taking names and digging graves Beware the wraith with an angels eyes; A grave deception, angels were meant for heaven That doesn't mean I wouldn't love to be the one to show you how fucking empty you are Let's see how much it means for you to have the last word Will you struggle to speak even with your lips sewn I am the horror of your dreams Horror, and you will never wake up My embrace won't let you go, to the grave it follows.

Break your fucking neck while you're holding your head, crying out "when the fuck will this curse end" If I died tomorrow, would you even leave flowers on my grave ...and when your eyes are rolled back in your head, remember what i said, one day you'll regret, one day you will regret, ever tying your arms onto a burning bridge Now you've got a gun and the intention to put a bullet in your head Well go ahead just make it easy Just make it easy on yourself, no one can help, or so your demons said With a single shot you say goodbye, and wear a hole in your head as if you're keeping a promise, just keep it to yourself ...and when they search the home, their eyes are scarred forever
5.
Drop dead, you don't deserve to be alive and well I see your smile as i suffocate Left hanging high above your head until the day you cut me free I'll be waiting for you to bear your neck and adorn the noose We could be so beautiful deceased as we rot in hell We take our secrets with us to the grave, and mark the lives of the ones we betrayed Promises mean nothing, all our vows were broken Promises mean nothing, all our vows were shit Promises mean nothing, all our vows were fucking lies I see the western sunset has finally got into your head, you'll pay the price to shine no matter what the sacrifice Fucking your way up to the top, it's time to shine Fucking your way onto the top, Hollywood runs through your veins Is your soul worth fifteen minutes on your knees Not every star deserves the sky, all that glitters is far from gold

Bury the hatchet, sever the ties Vehement screams forever haunting every dream Ghosts in silence left to harbor their hatred I feel my blood run cold As the angels sing their mourning song, the vultures feed their hunger Don't waste your breath on me I've heard these lies a thousand times before, they're all too familiar God forgive me, all beauty has died within There is no hope in forgiveness Mark my words, my return will bring your funeral May hell have vengeance on your soul God forgive me, I feel the end is near This treachery has assured your fate My god what have you done You put your foot in the grave the day you stood before me, and made a promise you can't keep. Til death do we part, and may we burn forever
8.
You were my favorite story, and now we write the ending The pages trace the body back to where it started bleeding I'm sure my eyes can tell you how long I've been waiting to hold your lovely head after it's decapitated. You get around like a fucking disease. Well, let's see how good you look at the end of a meat hook The same old wretched mess. I had the perfect words, you wore the perfect dress. Yes, and the first night we met they both dropped dead So run and hide you coward, I love the thrill of the chase Did you forget what was promised? So good in the sheets, but you should finish what you started before you go and try to fuck the wound Payback's a bitch and so were you I thought you might be different, turns out you're just another bitch I'd like to tear the head off of, and keep in in my closet with all the pictures of us And after all this time, you kept the past a secret, the truth came back for you Don't mourn the bride, this was her final vow
9.
How could you expect me to believe this is all my fault? You call this knife an acquiesce I call it reason to collect one final keepsake; your fucking head I hope it haunts you in your dreams to be reminded of the promises May you fear the day you wake and there I'll be I'll be waiting by your fucking bedside I'll be waiting by your bedside with a shotgun, and every reason to be the nail that seals your tomb Look who's happy now, look who's face down in the dirt Completely null of worth. You have what you deserve. Walk with me to the pyre, stoke the flame; This is where they'll find your remains Waiting for your last request, just as i'd expect; The same dead, as when we first met, screaming silence
10.
A bitter end to what once was so promising; I'll always miss that pretty mouth I've got a casket with your name and the perfect resting place, waiting for your beautiful body So get your finest dress you're going out in style Are you ready my darling, to be drug out and shot in your beloved face So they can see what lust has done to us; It's such a perfect mess Tonight the swine prevail At last i'm free from her Tonight the swine prevail And now i'm free from hell Here lies the king beside his cherished queen as they rot
