i see you indulge in whatever,
but you never notice the agony
that flows from my eyes.

time wishes to banish our insanity,
and our existence from each other.

rip me open,
or break my every bone;
forsake me, to all that’s forsaken,
or leave me here all alone.

trick my heart to keep on beating;
teach me to lie to myself,

watch me beg for my life,
as you pierce my throat with a rusty knife;
i love you, i swear i won’t ask why-
why it seems like you love to see me die.
