Bondage




Bondage

Live and let live, hold your hand here.

Live and let die, show me your fear.

Do me a favour, and stop all your tears.

You should already know, this has been coming for years.

You make this thing harder, as you shake like a leaf.

Do us a favour, and swallow your grief.

Be a good soul, and lay on your back.

As I unload my, brutal, savage, attack.

How was it for you? it was easy for me.

See you again, same time next week.
