It's Time to Save Face

Darling, the brighter side of me may love you
But the dark side that only sees the terrors in shadows
Find you such an ugly creature
And this type of feature only allows the beautiful

What crimes have you commited since I gave you my heart?
What lies have you whispered to the lark?
For what I've heard, you've taken to murdering the innocent little virgins
Who the village really knows are just harlots
Dressed in red, of course, to match the innocence they've shed
And at such an early age

Darling, the curtains are coming to a close
The show's almost at it's end
Quick! While you still have time
Give up your wickens and save face
For no one cares about your soul in a place like this

Everyone's a true skeptic here
Doing what they love the most, turning tables against others
And judging a broken soul
Imagining what wrongs the owner has done

There's all these meaningless faces dancing in tantrum
An actor shall grab a beauty, an "innocent"
He will whisper words of wickedness in her ear
"You never looked as good as you did on your knees"

A most scandalous affair at best
Where no one will win, but the watchers, for they want blood
But the losers shall have no taste at victory
Especially us, for we have not nearly enough personality to make one person
And far to much to make a wondrous couple
