Removal of the eyes

Gives my heart a sudden chill

I preserve them in formaldehyde

To gaze upon at will

How their greenish flecks befell me

That starlit winter's night

I lost all that I ever was

While locked within their sight

Before you sits a broken man

Your fragile pinkish heart in hand

Peculiar how it can hurt so bad

While love is only in the mind

I sew the gaping chest wound

Each thread is made with love

The bosom where I would rest my face

Is covered in your blood

No

This is not the end

You'll live on eternally

Oh

Lord, it's not the end

My secret you'll forever be

I interrupt this transformation

A familiar lust swelling in me

A long and soulful kiss

The shades are drawn

The living world can't see the coil of entrails

How curious the smell so pungent to my eager nostrils

Hands further compelled

Oh

No, it's not the end

Forever you'll be in my arms

Tonight I'll lay beside you, darling, in necromantic sin

Pinned to the bed sheets

Lke a prized butterfly

You're mine

I hear your voice so precious

Echoing deeply inside

I did my best to love you

While you did live and breathe

This tender taxidermy

Token of the bereaved

Tonight I'll lay beside you, darling

In necromantic sin
