I watch at windows when you’re gone
night crawls across the limitless sky
clock-tick and heart-beat never seemed so long
silence is stalking me again tonight

killing me slow, killing me slow, killing me slow
give me the bullet, give me the bullet, a quick release and let me go

you think I’m a spider fed on your blood
weaving listless webs of winter white
to wrap you up in the trap of my love
a cruel cocoon to keep you from flight

killing me slow, killing me slow, killing me slow
give me the bullet, give me the bullet, a quick release and let me go

if you have any kindness left, let me go
if you have any mercy left, let me go
