Porphyria's revenge

A poem/song based on the poem Pophyria's lover

Keep your hands to yourself
She don’t deserve them
Keep your hands to yourself
No-one deserves them
Keep your hands to yourself
they’re not as loving as you think.

She gave everything to you
Everything for you
She loved you
And you still tore her apart
You knew and you broke her
To keep your own beating heart

Consuming love
To keep her safe
Consumed the loved
To keep her yours
But now she’s more out of your reach
Than she ever was before

She was too good for you
She wouldn’t believe
But they said it and you knew

She always knew better
Not this time
You wouldn’t let her

And we watch as you slip away
Under the veil of self delusion
Watch as you run away
Into the night lit by stars alone
But the brightest of them all is left
To fade and die on her own.

We’ll take you down
And rip you apart
For all that you have done
For the pain that was hers
You will pay
And this time the blood is yours
