you've spent your whole life sweating in an endless fever
_laying in a bathtub full of freezing water, wishing you were a ghost_

Morbid fantasies, tears stained with blood
Beautiful annihilation
A tear carved with a drug
Still standing but with no eternal goodbye
She has on the tight black dress
& the knife strapped to her thigh
Ready to make love tonight
Someone call the ambulance
She's lying unconscious on the floor tonight
The orgasmic stab leaves her bare
As she moans "Bloody Mary" to the air
In the city where the cheap plastic bubble
Shields the smeared makeup within
A hidden generation takes pleasure
By self-inflicted pain
She cannot breathe; air is getting thin
Tonight she's not coming back.
