Close the Lock
Entwined
Love and Death clutch hands
Speak vows written in holy word
As the Devil smiles with anticipation
Down the aisle she dances
Corset laced and dress sinuous
Her magnificence was faultless
He stands stiff,
Framework trembling with nervous jerks
Butterflies eat the lining of the stomach
Both speak the words of truth,
And seal it with a kiss
Weeps from the church pews
Strike the heart, sentimental
Now closed forever, protected
Priceless rings signify nothing
Hearts bleed jewelry
United in the courtship of love
Sinners they are destined to befall
Satan smiles, awaits
As they pick the lock on the gates of Hell
