Seven Rusty Blades

Your body at my fingertips and
Oh how could I resist?
As I reach to pull you nearer and
Slide into your ribcage

The surrealistic edge of a
Romantic blade and it cuts
Into your heart
Your heart, your HEART

One! Rusty blade slides beneath your fingernails
Two! Inside your throat as you struggle to exhale
Three! Rusty blade scrapes along your spine
I’ll grab the bucket of your blood and hang it on the line

You taste the grit between your teeth
As it slices off your lips and
Your spine begins to wrench as
It slides into your vertebrae

When I was young I was a fool
So wrap me up in dreams and death
Pour your heart out onto me
Your heart, your HEART

Four! Outlines your body and it's peeling back your skin
Five! Gives you a brand new widened, crooked grin
Six! Brings you to an end, you release your final breath
Seven seals the parcel and delivers you to death!
