THE RANSOM
Sending shivers right down your spine,
it's something that you're prone to so divine.
You were better at lies
(I was never surprised)at the way that if felt.
Now feel the blade,
(I was always insane)but you're the one that needs help.
(Quick!) We have the ransom,
tell me how that you can swim when ropes
are wrapped around your limbs.
(Below!) There's no more chances,
so tell me now that you can swim when ropes
are wrapped around your limbs.
Breathing slowly never worked for me,
I cut the throat of betrayal to watch him bleed.
A poetic sonnet passion that I scream to the sky,
I'm tearing up, I feel your love, don't leave me behind.
A poetic sonnet passion that I scream to the sky,
I'm tearing up, I feel your love,
please don't leave me behind.
The smell of vanity went away,
I followed streetlights till I wound up at your place.
We traced our veins,
(we bled for days)the current was strong enough tonight.
I can taste any more,
it lasted on my tongue.
You weren't strong enough to say.
(Quick!) We have the ransom,
tell me how that you can swim when ropes
are wrapped around your limbs.
(Below!) There's no more chances,
so tell me now that you can swim when ropes
are wrapped around your limbs.
Grab my heart,
take this down
with your soul,
and bury it in the ground.
Go!
I talked to you today, I heard the tremble in your voice.
Cradle the fall, I know you'll never change,
so please just hold on. I know it's hard for you,
it's hard to understand. Betrayal within,
there is a fine line between betrayal,
betrayal and your friends.
Tell me how that you can swim when ropes
are wrapped around your limbs.
(
Quick!) We have the ransom,
so tell me how that you can swim when ropes
are wrapped around your limbs.
