The candles I have burned
Is just another lesson learned.
But everything I got
Compares to nothing that I've yearned.

I want to kill her. I want to kill her!
No, no, no! It's not justified!
Yes it is! She made me angry!
She's not worth our time!

And even though it's sad.
And even though I'm mad.
I'll try to not go crazy.
I'll remember what I had.

But she deserves it! She deserves to be murdered!
Come on, girl. Put down the knife!
I've fought you & fought you, I can't control urges!
Let's not have a life of crime!

She tries to subdue me.
She just can't see.
What she's done to us;
What she's done to me.

Our clock is ticking, her clock is ticking!
Look, let's calm down. Let's be settled!
Let's just speed it up! To do it, I'm itching!
Let's sit down, I have tea in the kettle.

She's doesn't want to do it.
She's trying to forget.
I'm trying to change her,
But she won't ever forfeit.

Okay, I've thought about it, maybe you're right.
Thank goodness, I was getting worried.
I've thought there is no need to fight.
Wait, why are you in such a hurry?

I'm not wrong.
I'll do well.
I am right.
She's gonna die.

I have to get something. I left it at mom's.
We both know that sounds suspicious.
Please, just trust me. I'm not a damn fool!
You're acting quite vicious.

She knows I'm up to something.
Let it be.
She didn't try something
To stop me.

Yo! Girl! The job is done!
What do you mean? We had no work to do.
She's dead now. We're free. We've finally won.
What the fuck is wrong with you?!

But my job is never finished.
I have to change her, too.
Her doubt, It would have to be diminished.
Then there's nothing left to do.

Please don't hate me, I swear I'm not wrong.
How can you say that?! You just killed someone!
Well, you're right. But I had to be strong!
Someone will find her! Soon we'll be gone!

She had it coming to her.
I've known for the longest: I'm right.
I don't know if this makes it better:
She put up a hell of a fight.

No, it's fine. I burned the body.
Oh god, I can't. Why did you do this?
It's okay, love. Nobody saw me.
Do you not know what this is?!

Just like I did with the candles.
I blew her out when I pleased.
This was quite the scandal.
Now my tension is eased.
