He pissed down her back Convinced her it was rain Although she could smell the stinch She accepted it anyway He gave her dirt Convinced her it was candy Although she could feel the grime She accepted it anyway He gave her shit Convinced her it was sugar Although there was nothing sweet about it She accepted it anyway He gave her nothing but shade (shady m.f.!) Convinced her that there was no sun Although she could see the rays with both eyes She accepted it anyway He gave her a black eye Convinced it her it was love Although she could only see hate in the mirror She accepted it anyway He gave her multiple stab wounds A punctured lung A snagger-toothed smile She couldn't stay away He sent her on a trip to the hospital in the ambulance Blood pouring from her head Barely enough oxygen left in her lungs to breath She went back to him anyway Convinced that it was all in the name of love.... And that love conquers all... He gave her death And convinced himself he was right He saw a red dot on his shirt over his heart Infrared lightBirth sign: Cancer
