Word To The Wise: Keep It Up
// There’s very little I can offer you by way of recompense For the years of solid mateship and revelry we’ve spent But if I can sell you something from here across the sea It’s a promise that if you choose to love it will always set you free And I know it’s a bit…
Deathly Sweet
Sometimes I hear her knock knocking at my door A deathly sweet voice that begs me for more More blood more drama more colour more spite A terrifying demon who cackles in the night And her lips are so soft and her arms so inviting Who wouldn’t want to kiss her or maybe die trying…
