you go in for the kill
and you've got me wondering
if you're just in it for the thrill
but stop right there,
I'm not finished with the truth
you keep it stashed up in a book
more holy than God's own word
I'm just a lamb, still part of your herd

and the constant contemplation
strangles this desire
leaving me fumed and on fire
oh darkness
why have you turned out the light?
I've waited all day
just to take it off
this wasted energy is
digging a hole within myself

I want to shoot you
in the empty space where your heart used to be ...
