The Gecko on your wall
Soon to be gone
Only for the cockroaches to come in again
Here I lay waiting for you in a bed full of roses
You betrayed me and returned to me with a single pink rose
I cried in your arms
You comforted me
My love for you knows no bounds
I planted my single pink rose
It has born forth-new fruits
And now I lay in a bed full of roses
Still waiting for you while you run around with cockroaches
They shit all over you
Sting you with their stench
I have cried
I am still crying
My tears are nourishing my garden of roses
I lie amongst the thorns
I bleed as they rip my flesh
Still waiting for you
My blood nourishes the soil
Still waiting for you
Many have come with their valor
To rescue me from myself, still waiting for you
I gave you my heart
You turned it into a pincushion
Pierced it with many needles
I am weak and feeble
Bleeding till death
Lying in my bed of roses, still waiting for you
I have died and given you my soul
Buried in my bed of roses
Still waiting for you
Dancing around with cockroaches
They will kill you and return your soul to me
Bury you in my bed of roses
I will be waiting for you in the afterlife
Still waiting for you
In my bed of roses
