3rd Chime
By: Murasaki
i hope you remember as well as i do
of the way that the wind blew, and the chimes that it threw.
the first time you turned on me, wasn't much fuss at all
what you did was gave up on the the way that we live
me in my bro's house with the rooftop peaked tall
and you with your friends all up in your room.
juvenile entrapment was ok to me
just as long as i held you when times were amiss
but then you just said things, to which i didn't agree
and pointed right at me as if ignorance were bliss
as i snuck up your window with your father's latter
peering within your window as you were asleep
i felt as we had something missing, i was the matter
so, i found myself home, crying upon messy sheets
the phone rang next morning as you were on the other line
and you were screaming maddly that there was someone else
i screamed back in anger as you told me i'm fine
but you needed a change, another toy off the shelf;
i visited you this day with my words so unkind
this was when i heard the first devilish chime.
i swore now that we were over that i'd never fall again
but the self-vow was broken when up you arised
from the ashes you forged when you left your new men
then convinced me you left them for the tears in my eyes
i felt like a god when you did return
that noone else filled the place you've for me
but, again, you found another way to help me to burn
oh, again with the heartache, how we weren't meant to be,
that you and your jerry and michael's alike
could bitch and complain about how much you hate
the way that you treat each other like
dirt you walk upon just to grate.
leave me now and find yourself the way you want to live
make sure you stay this time and keep away from mine
no more could i stand to sit on my porch,
for the wind would then blow, and, came with, my chime;
Blam... now the world is all blurry and i can't see plain
as the bullet rips fully in out of my brain
and the pulp falls helplessly bloody to the ground
for this is the redemption that i now have found
so this shall end my rambling divine
as now i shall never hear the bloody third chime.
