This is the Day

This is the day that your memories come to rest
This is the day that all you did will be forgotten
All the hate that you gave to me
All the blood that you took
This is the day I will wipe you away

This is the day that I will tell you we're through, in the finest way,
This is the day that you will never forget
Of course I know about her
She's the one person I thought I could trust
But this is the day that the two of you will die

Behind the curtain, the shadow reaches out,
Knife slashes down, curtain tears and fall,
As you, glassy eyed, and staring, fall down, down to death's embrace.

This is the day that the police will find me
This is the day that the police find you
I laugh like a maniac, clutching the knife
As they prise it from my grasp, and handcuff me
This is the day, my love, when all your lies, and life, are through.
