This Regrettable End (Untangled Version|Explicit)

Might the strings swell again

Sound then sadly descend

For to lend due respect

This regrettable end

For I slept with the best

As I've wept with the rest

Ever blessed with this sense

Some swift end might be met

Could those strings swell again

Lest mine eyes well instead

For to lend bated breath

Less this life that I've left

Yet our song soldiers on

Postscript first fell to fawn

Where each chord corresponds

Whom to all I've done wrong

Chest drawn of breath

Throat red as fresh stretched post-f**k flesh

Wed both sooner forget

And yet strange successions remind

Flush with desperate decline

Certain prides thus obliged

I've resigned to this life

Rife with primes passed behind

Strains of wrasp wearied rhyme

And no time to surmise all my wherefores and whys

Though I suppose should it help to know

I'm oh so glad to go

What with woe-soaked underclothes

And were that this the final phrase cast from these lovely lips

I pray remember this

Remember this

What once was wed with ones past

Though now no strings attached

For the lust or its lack just cant help coming back

Well past reprieve weve reached each creased

Of ceaseless griefs weve seen

Save this one brief relief
