One Last Scarlet Kiss

Give me permission
absolve me of blame
one last kiss of scarlet
One last touch of metal to skin
just one broken promise
to ease the pain
your lips on mine just once more
once more bittersweet
And it kills to hold on
to your razor sharp love
I'm still begging "stay with me, stay with me!"
but it cuts and it burns
more than the blade ever could
so I'll watch as you go
finish what you began
let you walk away with my heart in your hands
forgive me. forgive me.
Just one touch more,
one last scarlet kiss to oblivion...
