She paints a pretty picture

but the story has a twist

her paintbrush was her razor

and her canvas was her wrist

she paints a pretty picture

in the color red

while using her sharp paintbrush

she ends up finally dead

her pretty picture is fading

quite slowly on her arm

the blood is not running through her

she can no longer do harm

she paints a pretty picture

but the story has a twist

her mind was her razor

and her heart was her wrist
