lyrics

Had a girl that loved me but i didn't want that.
Had a girl that i loved, but she had another man.
And I don't believe in fate, but it's like the planets just aligned.
And afforded me the opportunity to make her mine.

So I focused my attentions and set my sight on the prize.
It was just below her stomach, tucked deep between her thighs.
And I don't wanna sound sleazy but I have never made love before.
'Til she was screaming out my windows while I was kicking in the doors.

Razorblade valentine, to your beauty they could not hold a light.
Razorblade valentine, will cut deeper, each and every time.

We'd lie in bed at night and we would talk of all the things that made her cry.
All the aggressors in her life, made her feel like she should die.
And I'm not a violent man, but I would murder every one.
To change her disposition and make right all the wrongs.

Because I'd never dream of hurting such a fragile, precious thing.
Would she feel the beauty if she never felt the sting.
And I'm rarely ever grateful, but to these deadbeats I give thanks.
For never knowing all the beauty that they held within their hands with my.

Razorblade valentine, to your beauty they could not hold a light.
Razorblade valentine, will cut deeper, each and every time.

Cuts me up inside to look at every little scar.
From the times you hated everything, hated what you are.
Where there is no simple answer, it's not a mindset, it's a cancer.
It eats your body, mind and soul, sucks them up into a hole.
Takes the spark out of your brain, drains the life out of your veins.
I won't let you go insane, I'm here to help you with the pain.

I'll help you with a heavy load that's come too much to bear.
If you ever need me, you know that I'll be there.
I may not have a lot, but what I've got I'll give to you.
My razorblade valentine is carved into everything I do.

Razorblade valentine, to your beauty they could not hold a light.
Razorblade valentine, will cut deeper, each and every time.
