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) 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
