lyrics

When I said that I loved you this I meant
I love the illusions you present
I love all the hopes you represent
Fabricated little white lies though

I fell prey to a blackened widow
I'll gouge your eyes and I'll steal your soul
I found myself in a darkened forest
But who was I to attest the cold?

Won't you be my inspiration?
Won't you be my bleeding stone?
Won't you be my inspiration?
Put your heart out for sale and name the price

A thousand reasons and a solar kiss
Broken thoughts on a night like this
Diamond eyes and a topaz stone
Sunk deep in the devil's clone

What I thought you were was so much more
Than the creature I'd fallen to adore
With all the hatred all the force
I buried love, I set the course

Won't you be my inspiration?
Won't you be my bleeding stone?
Won't you be my inspiration?
Put your heart out for sale and name the price

It's not the anger, it's not the pain
Nor the hatred, nor the shame
But it is the distrust I detest
I'd have killed for so much less

And my closest of friends you stole from me
But a shade of a former colleague
What is you suggest I do?
Forget the misery?

Once I held you in my arms
A broken girl on her bedroom floor
How quickly the slightest action changes
All I've done and so much more

Won't you be my inspiration?
Won't you be my bleeding stone?
Won't you be my inspiration?
Put your heart out for sale and name the price
