Bride of Vanity
She wore him outSearching for what could have been
He cares no more
He's looking now to what's within
This hatred that's been creeping in
The evil causing him to sin
And bury those that knew them well
He's scratching through
All the mistakes that caused him to give up his dreams
and fighting now what could have been
without those walls to hold him back
That caused his life to somehow crack
and spill the blood that flowed within.
He wipes away her bloody tears
and puts away the blade
Her reflection in the broken galss
shows the changes that he made
Outside now matching her cold black heart
He watches her beauty fade.
The bridge of her nose gives passage through
the crimson river that she cries
she suddenly begins to realize all hope is lost
if she must rely on personality
She'd rather die now that her looks are gone.
She died in pink,
A white dress drenched in blood
Forever stained
And on the day they lowered her into the ground
There were no flowers on the grave
And on the hedge stone all that was said
HERE LIES THE BRIDE OF VANITY.
