Disclaimer: I do not own Sweeney Todd.
Loosing my Breathe
My life
Is so out of line
Full of pain and anger
And lies
This deceit follows
My every step
My every move
My every breathe.
Lies are what keep me
Alive today
If I didn't lie
On the gallows I'd sway
Maybe I should
Stop these blades
From doing harm
For those past lost days.
Maybe I should
Find another
To replace Lucy
Someone like…Lovett?
But Lucy's kiss
Will never vanish
And while she's dead
My happiness is banished
From all crevices
Of my mind
For her I will
Speak these lies
For that golden hair
Upon her head
I would do anything
Until I'm dead.
Until the end
Of these torturous days
But is there someone
In front of my face?
Someone who would love me
As Lucy did?
Someone I would
want to live with.
Though she has brown hair
Instead of blonde
We might form
An everlasting bond.
But I can't forget Lucy
And her young, eager face.
And her passionate kiss
Can never be replaced.
It's like swaying on the gallows
As you're loosing your breathe
Every second bringing
you closer to death.
Between Lovett and Lucy
I sway.
While loosing my breathe
And wasting away.
