Man, 29, dies, car accident
Man, on the ground lies, in an accident
The veil of tears ends with this accident
Man, 29, dies in an accident

Ransom

Severed hands and ankles, sleeping in my gore tonight
no rest, that's right
Serpent tongues of silver, whisper in my ears all night
no truth, just lies
but when I'm scared is when there's silence in my head
I'm ill prepared to face the demon sleeping in my bed

Heart held for ransom, you pretty thing
and I'll never be the same
You were my angel, you wicked thing
and I'll never be the same

She stepped into my life, trample punctures to my lungs
no breath, that's right
but when I'm scared is when there's silence in my head
I'm ill prepared to face the demon sleeping in my bed

Heart held for ransom, you pretty thing
and I'll never be the same
You were my angel, you wicked thing
and I'll never be the same
You were not right to take your love away
I was so close I could touch your wings
but this love is a killer
and I'll never be the same
