Hands and Blade Crimson

 

She crept down to the bottom of those spiral stairs

She heard a bump in the night, another one of her fancy nightmares,

Black kitty cat hissed at a space on the wall

Where a portrait once hung of their dark lives before

She stopped dead in her tracks as cloud of grey smoke

Took the form of he who had long passed

 

She heard his voice again

Let it go your here with me now

 

With all her might she kicked open that heavy old door

Her safety was in the dark night, this house had now become alive

She ran naked into the cold, her skin bitten by the crisp air

Like a lynx she darted through Gods acre

Star gazers lay limp on fresh dirt

 

Her past rolling behind her

Like thunder and brimmed cloud

 

She ran until she reached a bottomless pit

And was tripped by an old demon we call Fate

'Fuck I'm going to hell' she yelled as she fell, and then it became all too familiar

All too familiar

And there stood the man, Horns trident, red, the whole debacle

'What brings you here my girl? There's no more room in hell

Even I draw the line somewhere

Try my old friend upstairs, maybe he is in one of his curious moods'

 

She thought she had buried his words

When she lost control many moons ago

 

Too shocking for hell and well for heaven it's a complicated place

So its back to that house to relive that night where with that sharp edged toy she took to his face

Satisfied he felt pain she thrust again and again

Hands and blade crimson

 

With a charge in her veins and aroused with disdain

That angry child that had been hiding inside her for so long

Finally took the reigns and unleashed that dark horse

He is now split in two but its still not enough for her elegant crescendo

With a bronze bust of some guy, head smashed like an egg

Then she took the knife with her to the bed

And watched colour fade to black and grey

She watched colour fade to black and grey

She thought it was over now, she can get some peace

But as we have learnt there's no place for a girl like her

So now she relives that night with hands

Hands and blade crimson Hands and blade crimson
