A Beautiful Death

About being captivated by someone, even if you know they'll only lead you down a painful road

Here I am captivated and intrigued 

Unable to see behind your eyes

Or withstand the siege

Utterly destroying my defences

Her morality dubious at best

But she makes me feel free

She walks and blazes a trail

And we all fall like dogs in line

Caught in a web and strung up high

A beautiful death awaits tonight

Love and loss all in a moment

A pulsar, a quasar, a supernova 

Notorious but still enchanting

Unable to glance into your soul

Putting heaven's light to the test

Infamous but still romantic

I'll fall for it time and again

As she snatches the last of my breath

She walks and blazes a trail

And we all fall like dogs in line

Caught in a web and strung up high

A beautiful death awaits tonight

Love and loss all in a moment

Why does it have to be over?
