I heard the news today;

That you're not mine to keep.

Don't struggle too much now

While I kill you in your sleep.

What is lust if it's not being by yourself?

I won't be gentle to the body on the shelf.

It's only water

It's only fire

It's only love.

It's only slaughter

We're only liars

It's only blood.

They're only thoughts that I'm having;

Thoughts safe within my head.

You're only crying

You're only dying

You're only red.

I heard the news today,

That you weren't mine to save

I hope that you're comfortable

In the quiet lasting grave.

What is lust if it's not being by yourself?

I won't be gentle to the body on the shelf.

It's only water

It's only fire

It's only love.

It's only slaughter

We're only liars

It's only blood.

They're only thoughts that I'm having;

Thoughts safe within my head.

You're only crying

You're only dying

You're only dead.

It's only water

It's only fire

It's only love.

It's only slaughter

We're only liars

It's only blood.

They're only thoughts that I'm having;

Thoughts safe within my head.

You're only crying

You're only dying

You're only dead.
