Delicate surgery

Choose the best fabric for the weekend

Take a needle to pierce my heart

Close the scars and pass the line to the end

With a pair of scissors cut the bond until tear apart

Sew the veil for the wedding

Wait honey, my heart is still beating

Although it's over, these stitches will remain forever

Waiting years to leave them together

Rescue this old rag from the ashes

Remove the stigma of this poor old me

Stigma that has the weight of taxes

As well as begging for the state to be free

A brave mind without guts

Cut the tie that unites us

A beautiful death made of emerald

Sew the veil for the funeral
