Lace me up and stitch me down
place a veil of needles upon my crown
drown me in my bloody tears
wash away my plague of fears
speak sweet nothings softly in my ear
as I bury myself in the memories of all these worthless years
words of poison seep through my veins
I lock myself to these rusted chains
cage my soul in this chamber of torture
known only as my lovers capture
Oh sweet yesterdays drag me down in such disarray
as dusk falls and dying stars lead the way
tie me to the bedpost with notches of lusts past
bring me back to sanity within the devil's mask
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
my body's prisoner
my souls now lost
