desdemona. Lyrics

Oh Desdemona

Your skin glitters like an open wound

Your lipstick tastes of poison

Or at least it did when you kissed me that afternoon

Oh Desdemona

We're drowning in red

As you take your last breath

Above sea comes my head

You fall from your ivory pedestal

Where I kept you for months on end

And I can't catch you now

Or you'll break my step

And we'll tumble into our graves

Oh Desdemona

You'll have to go

So I can finally be saved
