Candlelit

Love's checkered past Is littered with violent acts And the blood that fills kindless paths Each drop drawn in her name. In this modern age The image of father has changed But if you're ready I'm willing to wage a gut-wrenched war For a minute of your time I'm done playing stone paper scissors Gonna take that stone and bring them all down with it Steal some scissors and cut some throats Put pen to paper and write you a note I won't get in line I will not wait for this. With my bare hands I kill Just to be candlelit With you. I have no checkered past And I've never been a violent man Maybe you've changed all that Each scar I carve is in your name So let the suitors come I can see them off one by one Open every last artery up Just for a second of your time. I'm done playing stone paper scissors Gonna take that stone and bring them all down with it. Steal those scissors and cut some throats Put pen to paper and write you a note I won't get in line I will not wait for this. With my bare hands I kill Just for the privilege Look at the blood bath Look at the mess I have made With my bare hands I kill Just to be candlelit with you.
