Forsake the Boy Lyrics by The Widow’s Bane

2009

I play my cards
Close to my chest
Keep a beretta 
In my boot
And if you're comin' here, to test me dear
Please don't think that I won't shoot'
Cause I know your kind
I've seen your eyes
All emeralds and mud
What you give, don't come free, you
Take it out in blood
Forsake the boy, yes, 
Beat him 'til he's blind
Crucify Prometheus
God will never
Mind
I keep a cobra
Nailed to my wall
To keep all the other snakes away
And it's that very same viper that unpins itself
To bite me where I lay
So I got this venom
Deep in my vein, and a vendetta
Deep in my eye
I'm a [?] fool to think I can win this game
I'll be playin' it until I die
Forsake the boy, yes, 
Beat him 'til he's blind
Crucify Prometheus
God will never
Mind
Honey, sugarplum, pumpkin, sweetie-pie
I got my eye on you
And I see that blade
Twinkle in your palm
And I know what you're plannin' to do
But that honey looks so sweet
Just drippin' from your ruby lips
I lean in for one small taste
Then in, the blade, it slips
Forsake the boy, yes, 
Beat him 'til he's blind
Crucify Prometheus
God will never mind
Forsake the boy, yes
Never let him go
Crucify Prometheus
God will never
Know
