You said she got beautiful eyes
So I gouge her eyeballs
You said her nails are cute
So I cut her fingers

You said she has a perfect smile
So I remove all her teeth
You said she's smart
So I took her brain

You said you love everything about her
So I skinned her from head to toe
Wore it like a suit and smiled at my reflection
Now, you'll love me for sure.

Drove to your house,
Snuck into an open window
Head to your room,
Saw you asleep

I smiled foolishly,
The man I love is in front of me
I slowly walk towards you
Wake you up by kissing you

You look at me in terror
I smiled and turned around
I held your face and asked
"Am I beautiful now?"
