Killing the Monster

by Pearls and Formaldehyde

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
With this stake
I deal the pain of the just

You’ve killed too many
Who didn’t have a clue
You’re a monster without a soul
They didn’t hold a candle to you

But you made a mistake
Because you didn’t kill me
And now I’ve tracked you down
To slay you with glee

You took my voice
You took my face
So now I’ve come
To be rid of you, every little trace

But my hand stills
This deed I cannot do
It would be so much easier
If I didn’t love you…
