Took away your life from you
I know you want it back
Trusted me, I know, did you?
I stabbed you in the back

I wrecked you when I needed you
Obsessed with what I saw
Now forever I’ll have you
And love you all the more

Broke my heart when you told me
That I could never have it
Revenge for all that should have been
Revenge became a habit

Torn between my love for you
And mind-distorting lust
When I stop to think it through
I see it was too much

I took the chance and afterwards
I realised I was wrong
the way to go was not towards
It took me far too long

I should have gone the other way
And left you where you were
For now I’m thinking every day
About how you were hurt

Self-sacrifice is what would help
To set the record straight
I know it won’t avenge your death
For now it’s far too late

I can believe I’m doing this
It has to go ahead
I pulled the trigger didn’t miss
I know because I’m dead
