lyrics

The tea is in my hand
And yet I do not understand
With every lump I drop
Of sugar sweet, into your cup
How did we get to here?
Caressing all my darkest fears
You brought me oft’ to tears
Pretending that you really cared
But I will not cry for you
I SCREAMED until my heart turned blue
With all the evil things you do
They shall be the end of you
Your never-ending spree
Of hate and lust and villainy
Won’t get the best of me.
For I shall….

Chorus -
Silence your lips with tea
And with my friends bring and ends
To your treachery
So that no others need to bleed
At the hands of your selfish greed
I will silence your lips with tea
And with my friends bring an ends
To your villainy
For you could be the death of me
If I don’t put an end to this misery!

You walk into the room
I feel how my heart used to swoon
Whenever you were near
I pull you out a dining chair
And present you with your tea
Your probing eyes just stare at me
And my heart, it skips a beat
As you get up from my seat
And pull me close to you
I SCREAM until my lungs turn blue
The table set for two
With china that we’ll never use
I manage to break free
Your sadistic eyes still watching me
As I bring you back your tea
And pray to God that I can….

Chorus -
For you could be the death of me
If I don’t put an end to this agony!
(This agony)

So drink the tea, sweetie
And don’t tell me it tastes funny
Just drink the tea, sweetie
Sweetie, sweetie… (x2)
Oh I loved you. How I loved you
And you betrayed me
Like I never could have predicted. Oh

I will silence your lips with tea
And with my friends bring an ends
To your treachery…

I will

Chorus -
For you could be the death of
Won’t be the death of me! No!
