Lyrics:

I love fresh flowers blooming in spring
Little cats curling, the joy that they bring
The smell of bread rising warm in the air
A song in my throat, soft notes I’d share

I wore pastel skirts, I hummed in the rain
Found comfort in teacups and windowpane
I cooked with a smile, I lived without fear
Sang lullabies only angels could hear

And then she appeared, the love of my dreams
With laughter like bells and sugar-sweet schemes
She said she loved every piece of my light
Promised forever in the arms of the night

We danced in the garden, we kissed in the dark
She drew little hearts on my skin like art
But shadows were growing behind her eyes
And truth, I would learn, wears such clever disguise

She shattered my fingers, one by one
Said, “You’ve been unfaithful,” though I had done none
The roses wilted, the music went still
And I knew then love had sharpened to kill

I tried to escape, to heal and forgive
To find in the ruins a reason to live
I painted again, I laughed for a while
I dared to believe in the strength of a smile

But healing was fragile, like frost in the sun
She waited in silence, and then she begun
A knife through my eye, a kiss full of hate
She came for my soul when I tempted fate

But I didn’t die, though I begged to be
The fire consumed what was left of me
I crawled through the ash, every scar a hymn
And rose like a queen, reborn from within

No more the doll with the sugar-spun heart
No more the lover who tears me apart
Now I bring the fire, the hunger, the flame
And mercy’s a word I no longer name

I smile in mirrors with blood on my lips
I sharpen my knives with lavender tips
I know what they fear, and what they adore
And tonight, I’ll give them something more

I’m done being broken, done being prey
I am the storm, and I’ve come out to play
They made me a monster with lace and with wine
So I toast to the devil — her power is mine

This date we are having, you’ll never forget
The candles are lit, the table is set
You’ll sip on my charm, get lost in the thrill
And by dessert, I might just kill
