I've been spinning out for time.
Couple women by my side.
I've got sinnin' on my mind.
Sipping on red wine.
Corrival sat there in his office. He was exhausted. Why did he even take up this damned job he asked himself. Not even he knew. So here he was, with a bottle of wine. Yes, the whole bottle. Not only was he bored, he now wanted to kill Tipstaff. That 'by the book' administrator who brought him paperwork by the hour. None of it was relevant. Some dumb cases like people giving shots to budgies.
I've been sitting here for ages.
Ripping out pages.
How'd I get so faded.
How'd I get so faded.
Oh
No no don't leave me lonely now.
If you love me how.
You never loved me.
Ooh
Colour crimson in my eyes.
Wanted to could free my mind.
But he knew he couldn't quit. They simply wouldn't allow him too. Tipstaff wouldn't. Even if he did manage too. Then Mist would surely take up the space as Ghastly would not. Then the sanctuary left in that woman's hands... No. Those would be some dark days.
This is how it ends.
I feel the chemicals burn in my
Bloodstream.
Fading out again.
I feel the chemicals burn in my
Bloodstream
So tell me when it kicks in.
Well tell me when it kicks in.
This wine tasted odd. It was almost... off. The waiter who had brought to him didn't look of any suspicion and had left without a word. Was... was his drink spiked? Was he drugged? Was somebody trying to kill the grand mage?
I've been looking for a love.
Thought I'd find it in a bottle.
God make me another one.
I'll be feeling this tomorrow.
Lord forgive me for the things I've done.
I was never meant to hurt no one.
And I saw scars upon her broken
Heart did love.
Oh
No no don't leave me lonely now.
If you loved me how.
You never loved me.
Ooh
Colour crimson I'm my eyes.
One or two could free my mind.
He couldn't lift his arms anymore and the bottle now smashed to the ground. Spilling its contents into a mass of glass and liquid. He slumped back in his chair. He could hear his heartbeat in his ears.
This is how it ends.
I feel the chemicals burn in my
Bloodstream.
Fading out again.
I feel the chemicals burn in my
Bloodstream.
So tell me when it kicks in.
Well tell me when it kicks in.
Well tell me when it kicks in.
He just wanted this over already. It couldn't come soon enough. When were the effects of this drug going to start charging his organs. He had been sitting here for a minute or two. He didn't want this to happen.
All the voices in my mind.
Calling out across the line.
All the voices in my mind.
Calling out across the line.
Tell me when it kicks in.
And I saw scars upon her.
Tell me when it kicks in.
Broken hearted.
So tell me when it kicks in.
He heard a knock on the door. It didn't sound like Tipstaff. He tried to call out but he just made an indefinable sound. Valkyrie opened the door, saw Corrival and ran over to him. Supporting his body she called out.
"Oh my God HELP!"
Skulduggery was there, soon to be followed by Ghastly and Tanith who helped with Corrival.
"The waiter." Was all Ghastly needed to say before Tanith was gone.
