Into The Night

If I was a fly

And I had a day left 'til I died

I would lay down til tomorrow

You're clipping my wings

I try to win you back with all my words that you know mean nothing

You could have believed in me

And I saw a tear on a rose and I clipped it off for you

As I gag on my guts 'cause I'm watching you give up

I'm a tear in the clock as you walk away

I can almost taste the glaze on your lips

Smacking away into the night

They say at least he's my friend

And he'll treat you kindly in the end

Call me bitter but I'm brimming with hate for both of you

A film if playing in my head of you fornicating in his bed

The satin sheets are ruby red like your nails that scarred my back

And I saw a tear on a rose so I swept it off for you

I'm a fly on a wall and I'm watching you give up

I'm a tear in the clock as you walk away

I can almost see a shade of your blue eyes

Fading away into the night

You never believed in me

But I will believe in me

Because now I take a match to the rose that I gave, my love, to you

Won't forgive

Won't forget

And the rage will lift me up

I hope you choke on his tongue

As I walk away I will not watch his hands as they deftly pull you away

Into the night
