Reading my future while touching my lips

She said I might live long, long enough to enjoy this gift

I said: Hey, ain’t that sweet

And then I kissed her right in her cheek

First thing in the morning I try to identify

Who was the pretty girl in the bed I called mine

She had this shadowy look in her eyes

Only to think about it gives me a chill in the spine

I can’t explain

It was as quick as lightning, but I certainly felt that pain

My brain aches for fuck’s sake

What does it take for you to take me away?

It barely took a blink and she already slipped away

I’m trying to think of what kind of game is she trying to play with me

I was almost at the brink of my sanity to shatter apart

When I realized that she was the gipsy from last night

I can’t, I can’t explain

It was as quick as lightning, but I certainly felt that pain

My heart aches for fuck’s sake

What does it take for you to take me away?

Now this mist is dense

And all this shit is making me feel so tense

She disappeared so fast something is wrong with that

It’s just a hunch but that gift she talked about

Was it my life?

If so, then I guess it is too late

To rely on Christ

What the fuck is that

Following me down these halls

I can feel a heat, my heart it skipped a beat

I’m running a fleet

Oh fuck this door is stuck!

I can feel my blood running down my corpse
