Lyrics
She was so kind to me

She sang her little shadow song

And I could not resist it

Bitter blood, come sing along

With your hand upon the bible

Would you swear that is the truth?

(The whole truth and the truth alone)

If she had only shut her mouth

Shattered memories of quiet cold rejection

A careful devil's irony in pure perfection

In pure deceit

You ask me

Was it all I had to tell?

Was it all I could recall?

Know that I broke her neck

A twisted china white visage

I may seem unaffected

But don't we all want to be god?

Is it all you can remember?

Would you swear it on your life?

You will never really know my name without reflection

A careful devil's irony in pure perfection

In pure deceit

But in the moment it's so beautiful

Flow along with a hunger

With the nature of the beast

These are shattered memories of quiet cold rejection

A careful devil's irony in pure perfection

You will never really know my name without reflection

A careful devil's irony in pure perfection

In pure deceit
