Fiend

You are my perfect fiend

The dangerous thing

Through ages drifting between

You are my perfect fiend

I loved you foolishly

You gave blindness to me

Darkness is all I see

I loved you foolishly

Perfect fiend,

Why do I blame you?

I blame you

For something you didn’t do.

I blame you

Because I walked away

With my heart in my throat

When I wanted to stay

I blame you

When I went my own way

Perfect fiend,

You are really not a fiend at all.

Not at all.

Is it your fault?

Not at all.

Not at all.

But I choke on blood

I choke on the blame

I choke on the shame

I choke on the pain

Choke on blame

Perfect fiend,

You are my perfect fiend

Because I’m choking

On all those things
