Blood drops stain the steel of my knife
As I gently quell your cries
Fair skin painted red
Peeling the dermis to touch the nerves beneath
Shredding lavish skin
Grapping hold of what's within
Exposing your inner self
I finally get to see what you really are

Welcome into my world my darling let me lead your way
For I have such sights to show you I'm past the point of deranged
For human love seems so superficial it's not for what's within
So I dig beneath the surface and tear you limb from limb

My love befalls you it hurts oh so sweet
As blood is drained from veins and fed into me
In the end I'm smiling knowing you're always here with me
Because your body can no longer move

I am bereft of human love
So I search for something more
To see what's behind the smile
And find what you really hide
I am lost inside your guts
Within this necromantic love
And there's more than most could see
And I know that it's what's on the inside that counts

So let me have a look
Inside your open wounds
Your bloodied heart will tell me the truth
The dead they never lie
They don't avert their eyes
You stay here by my side
My fingers find comfort in your insides

Your beauty is forever preserved in formaldehyde
In the jars that adorn my abode and gives me peace of mind
So now with needle and thread I start the diligent work
Making your body whole again for one last passionate night

My love befalls you it hurts oh so sweet
As blood is drained from veins and fed into me
In the end I'm smiling knowing you're always here with me
Because your body is stuffed and on display
