Numb from the pain of love

Praying that her life will cease
And bring not pain, but eternal peace
She starts clawing at her skin
Sinking her nails deep within
Tears out her heart and lays it on the ground
Now numb from the pain of love she makes no sound
Relieved from the pain she begins to smile
This is the best she has felt in a while
With dried blood beneath her nails
Red mist forms in the air as she exhales
The scent of blood in the air
Setting on her body bare
Sews up her chest with the thread of the dead
Misses, and plunges the needle into her head
Mascara bleeds from her eyes
And in the silent night you can hear her cries
As she sings her wailing song
Seducing death... she doesn't have long
