It
was my perfume de' decay
Close
your eyes and wish me away
Still you see me, knowing I'm dead
You
almost didn't believe it
after
seeing, you must admit
it
had to sink into your head
Blue
blood I bled in a short time
I
was young, I'd say in my prime
but
that's only my point of view
Now
I'm a bone bag on the ground
my
soul's not there, no longer bound
finally
free, away it flew
I was foretold to fear the light
and beware
the moon when it's blue
Close
your eyes and wish me away
nothing
happened to your dismay
I
befriended Death's brother Dread
Still you see me, knowing I'm dead
the
smell turned your stomach a bit
took
all you had not to vomit
save face you went outside instead
Still you see me, knowing I'm dead
the
experience was sublime
you
got used to it over time
while watching blood turn black and red
Still you see me, knowing I'm dead
close
your eyes and wish me away
Still you see me, knowing I'm dead
