I inhale my cigarettes
With shallow apathetic breaths
All other suicide attempts
Were met with ill success
I exhale with indecision
A prayer formed by condition
I handed her the scissors
Smiling with each incision

(chorus)
I can feel your heart racing
As we swim into this empty kiss
Another night of endless pacing
Has again reduced us here to this
A failing quest for sensation
Test the blood, is it there
Darling, I don't know your name
No matter, I don't really care

With blank dissasociated lips
I feel the pulse beat thru your hips
Anonymous flesh fills a void
Its just a fleeting shallow fix
That numbs the mind, breaks the heart
Slowly etches yet another scar
Into skin that once gleamed pristine
Your fingers razors that burn and sting

She shreds her cigarette with finesse
As I kiss the seams in her dress
Libertine debauchery pressed
We aquiesce sins never to confess
Heaven has no place for me or you
The broken battered tortured blue
With a heart like stone none can see
But long ago He gave up on me

2003, song lyric, unpublished
