You make me sick
I'll tear out those diamond eyes
I can't bear to see
Crimson spills on paper skin
They call this tragedy
Remembering the nights when
You'd whisper to me soft: "forever more my heart is yours"
Realize those words have died
As the life fades from your eyes (fades from your eyes)
All that I can say is it may not be too late
Try again, make it perfect (make it perfect)
Make me worth it, or else die for all I care
If I cannot be loved then none shall be
Think of this as I softly kiss your blood glazed lips once more
On this night this thing you call love dies
Your face disgusts me, smile and bear your lies
This broken trust will become your demise
As the life fades from your eyes (fades from your eyes)
All that I can say is it may not be too late
Try again, make it perfect (make it perfect)
Make me worth it, or else die for all I care
After today, silence will haunt you
Expect no (expect no) forgiveness
After today (for your life), silence will haunt you (will end)
Expect no (tonight) forgiveness (tonight)
Now I grit my teeth and finish
What I know must be done to kill the memory of you
Now I grit my teeth and finish
What I know must be done to kill the memory of you
And you said this would be forever
And you said this would be forever
As the life fades from your eyes (fades from your eyes)
All that I can say is it may not be too late
Try again, make it perfect (make it perfect)
Make me worth it, or else die for all I care
