Come What May - Speak Like Butchers

Caution to the eyes that wander to

The baited snare

It’s prize is a beauty unmatched,

Guarded by jealous and writhing beast(‘)s(.)

Crimson teeth will,

Mark your end

And everything you love

Will fall prey to earth,

Lust make a meal of your heart

Mark my words brother

Your soul is meal, is fodder.

Her life is in pictures before me

There’s blood in the air and I can see every drop in your smile.

Clench your teeth,

Wet your jaws.

The cadence her pulse beats is manic

Those drinks and that skin make her prey in all of your eyes.

No restraint,

No control.

You coward.

Bathe in urge,

With your dilated pupils.

Ain’t it wild,

That we speak like butchers?

Look to me,

When the sun gives in.

Clench your teeth,

Fired synapse meets sin.

You’re so familiar,

When your hand traces mine.

It’s cold on the rooftop.

You’re so familiar,

When your hand traces mine.

And I won’t lose you

To a monster like him;

To shortness of breathe,

to sweat,

To alcohol,

And regret.

I will part Heaven and earth,

to end this game, to get to her.

I will part Heaven and earth,

To end this fight, to get to her.

Mark my words child.
