My companion through life but what's your name? I thought I knew… Whispered in code, in fragments and secrecy Part by part, forty and counting Through the pain and the grief You've been my one and only relief Cause this town is sad and we like it that way You're born here, you stay put
What should I call you my dear? As you set my soul on fire Burning only to carbonise But not yet, I'll use you first You've fed on me I'm almost gone Time to sin before the dawn Burning only to carbonise Time to sin, shine so brightly one last time
