Murder
when you take away a life
with the aid of a knife
you are taking away a life
that is clinging on to survive
make no mistake
be careful
asleep or awake
murder is unlawful
your eyes see into my soul
stabbing every corner in my heart
rip me open from the inside
until everything falls apart
you cause me so much pain
bringing me to tears
the hurt just wont go away
until its everything i fear
i cant stop crying
when part of me is dying
the tears i drop
they are tears of blood and murder
need i speak futher, no doubt it is
murder...
