Water so dark and dreary   That's where my sweet Mary sleeps   Under the ice in winter   I placed my axe in her back   She was so pretty - I had to make her mine      Her white dress stained red   Axe head cased in her ribcage   Kicking her twitching corpse in the sea   She is still breathing   The stars are bleeding, dripping her light forever   I should have saved her   Kept her bones for fire      Slowly reaching in the water   To see how her breath still flows   Her hand grabs my wrist tightly   I can see the life light flicker in her eyes   Like a candle on its wick's last burning ember      Her complexion so pale as if she had seen a ghost   A ghost of her life fading as the water entered her lungs   A gasp and my hand holding nothing   As she begins to fall   Down deep where cries won't echo   Below in the depths of hollow   Ruby lips. Blue water   The stars are bleeding, dripping her light forever      I did what I had to do splitting her in two   Ceasing with a cry I couldn't hear   But it rang through my soul      Knowing her life below   Knowing what happened inside   Her watery tomb-less grave   Forever the serpents slave   Ruby lips. Blue water   The stars are bleeding, dripping her light forever   Forever dying   Premature interment in water   Let my axe be your anchor   She rests deep in murder   Let my axe be your anchor   Let my axe be your anchor      Montage of sinning smiles   Flash black then I see teeth   Sharp ivory glistening   A true dog underneath   A jackal, my baby a jackal
