She paints a pretty picture
But the story has a twist
Her paint brush is a razor
And her canvas is her wristShe paints a pretty picture
In a colour that's blood red
While using her sharpest paint brush
She ends up finally deadHer pretty pictures fading
Quite slowly in her arm
The blood is not racing through her
She can no longer do harmShe painted her pretty picture
But her picture had a twist
You see her mind was her razorAnd her heart was her wrist
