Be it love, religion or suicide, something's binding them. Is not, in any way, meant to offend those of you who are religious. And I obviously don't own the wedding vows, Peter Pan or E.T.

[She is the devil with smudged eyeliner and a smeared lipstick smile, and she kisses the angels that you have desecrated. Prick your finger and she'll bleed you dry, her own sleeping beauty. The worms feed on flesh, and you're not so sacred. She's got a Bible quote for every occasion, and she'll slit your throat in any situation.]
[I take thee to be my lawful wedded husband]
A little blade, a little blood
A little pain to make it good
[to have and to hold]]
A little love, some added suicide
You won't know until you've tried
[from this day forward]
I sailed the seven bloody seas
Whispered prayers into the trees
[for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer]
I heard your name and called it fate
And pulled you up a minute too late
[for fairer or fouler, in sickness and in health]
Your halo slipped around your throat
Your heart was too heavy to stay afloat
[I know you must be dead
Because I don't feel anything]
I kissed your lips and they were cider sweet
I caught your tongue and you called me a cheat
[to love and to cherish…'til death us do part]
My maid of honour was Pandora
Had considered Medusa before her
[Do you believe in fairies?]
And Lucifer was your best man
In holy matrimony we were damned
[I do, I do, I do]
Take your halo from your head
And with this ring, I thee wed
[and with my body, I thee honour]
Eye for an eye, turn the other cheek
Millions strong, and reasoning weak
[In the name of the Father, Son, and The Holy Spirit…
Amen]
