Pale Eyes - Before I Turn

God above frowning down on me

As I try to hide her body where no one else can see

Down in the basement, where no one will know

But they can tell from the sorrow I show

Stitch a motherfucking mask on my face

And rid myself from the setting where this all took place

My love’s supposed to be with me forever

But I can’t even remember all the skin that I’ve severed

Pale eyes solemnly staring at me

Pale skin, turning green

Blood dried to the sides of her lips

Dependent lividity setting in on her hips

I can’t live my life

With her’s lost in the basement

I can’t use my eyes

After what they’ve seen

«Turn around», what’s that sound, who is watching me?

I’ll be protected by the devil watching over me

All the guilt setting in, with an empty brain

The lifelessness in her eyes will drive me insane

Hell below has a spot for me

For my kill, for my penance and my apathy

Heaven above will reject my plea

For forgiveness and sanity

«Turn around», what’s that sound, who is watching me?

I’ll be protected by the devil watching over me

All the guilt setting in, with an empty brain

The lifelessness in her eyes, I want to feel her pain

It’s really happening;

here’s your eternal bed

It’s really happening;

my love, now rest your head

It’s really happening;

here’s your eternal bed

It’s really happening;

forever fucking with my head

«My knees become weak as I fall to the floor

My acquiescence of finally putting her body to rest

Has left me in utter turmoil

Nobody is watching me, nobody is after me

The only two presences in this room is myself and my guilt

What would have been three has exited the room hastily

Her soul has been disconnected from her body

Much like my sanity»
