How does time go so slow?
In the night, where does he go?
And why do I feel so bad?
In the night, the best I ever had.
And I have fallen madly in love,
With a man I cannot trust.
I don’t think that he might hurt me,
I know he would.
It’s in his blood.

What doesn’t kill you
Just makes you stronger
What doesn’t fill you
Just feeds your hunger.

(Little bloody)
Ruby red pearlets
(Little bloody)
Around my neck
(Little bloody)
Ruby red pearlets
(Little bloody)
It’s just a speck.

Where does that corridor follow?
Behind a door, he forbid me to go.
Although his desires, I know.
Still I can’t do as I’m told.
The stench of blood drew me to swallow,
In a chamber hollow,
Apart from a maiden full of holes.

What doesn’t kill you
Just makes you stronger
What doesn’t fill you
Just feeds your hunger.

Little bloody)
Ruby red pearlets
(Little bloody)
Around my neck
(Little bloody)
Ruby red pearlets
(Little bloody)
It’s just a speck, yeah yeah.
Little bloody)
Ruby red pearlets
(Little bloody)
Around my neck
(Little bloody)
Ruby red pearlets
(Little bloody)
It’s just a speck.

What doesn’t kill you
Just makes you stronger
What doesn’t fill you
Just feeds your hunger.


(Little bloody)
Ruby red pearlets
(Little bloody)
Around my neck
(Little bloody)
Ruby red pearlets
(Little bloody)
It’s just a speck, yeah yeah.
Little bloody)
Ruby red pearlets
(Little bloody)
Around my neck
(Little bloody)
Ruby red pearlets
(Little bloody)
It’s just a speck
