Romantic Assassinations
Candlelit dinner with an alluring maiden fair
Soft strum of music and the light caught in her hair
Who is this vision of loveliness, who makes the whole world shine?
Then you're vomiting blood because there's ground glass in the wine
A lonely clifftop walk and a spectacular view
You could swear this golden sunset was created just for you
When you feel his hands up you, you swear that could touch the sky
Such a shame that you never learned to fly
The moors are bathed in golden light as he takes you for a ride
You can feel your heart beat racing as he draws up to your side
Is that your whole world moving, or is the saddle loose?
Then you expire messily beneath your horse's hooves
They say that romance is dead but that is something of a lie
Romantic assassinations show you heaven before you die
They'll bathe your inner self with light, show you all life has to give
For everyone should feel special just before they're shivved
