I breached the borders of your home
 And everything looked as it should have done
 Candle flame flickers and books unread
 Round the crystal kept on an unmade bed
 Flowers cut to shrivel and die
 Like romance does and we both know why
 With an artful flutter as if on cue
 A gentle breeze brings the scent of you
 I?m older than God and I live in your town
 You shouldn?t raise up what you can?t put down
 Those books that you pose with are more than antiques
 When you search in the dark you should fear what you seek
 Pallid in moonlight your shimmering skin
 Is mine to caress you invited me in
 The delicate architecture of your throat
 Arcs sweetly away as my hands approach
 Do you bleed diamonds
 Do you bleed rubies
 Do you bleed roses
 A broken kiss and an aching sigh
 Like a half heard end of a lullaby
 A whispering chorus and a stifled moan
 The jarring vibration of knife on bone
 The stark composition of essence and parts
 I gathered your limbs for a final dance
 A silent waltz to your songs unsung
 As the lifeblood seeps from your punctured lung
 Do you bleed diamonds
 Do you bleed rubies
 Do you bleed roses (x2)
 Oh you bleed diamonds
 You bleed rubies
 You bleed roses (x2)
