Drain,
Drain
my blood and,
Paint
your wall,
With
my crimes.
Dig
your warm fingers
Into
my cold blood,
With
your lustful eyes
Imagine
the painted wall
Let
the red dry,
And
become your art
Art be your masterpiece
No one to copy
As no one will have me.
Make all those faces,
And those wounds.
Let the color drip
As it would from flesh.
The pleasure of the paint
Remember that no one was saint.
Let not the color faint.
With opera dying with time,
Finish the wall
Let it be witnessed by all
Oh! the last glimpses
Looked beautyful
Paint it before I am empty
Before I am drained of beauty
You once saw.
Art be your masterpiece
No one to copy
As no one will have me.
Make all those faces,
And those wounds.
Let the color drip
As it would from flesh.
The pleasure of the paint
Remember that no one was saint.
Let not the color faint.
With opera dying with time,
Finish the wall
Let it be witnessed by all
Oh! the last glimpses
Looked beautyful
Paint it before I am empty
Before I am drained of beauty
You once saw.
