lyrics
verse 1:
these lies you've told me
said you loved me
i'm coughing blood
this metallic spit
it's like you'd think I'd forget
you think i'll wait here
your hands shoving down my throat
the clock strikes 9, you're outta time
chorus:
you're a user you hold the dagger
the other holds my hand
look straight in my eyes rob my soul blind
hope you're choking on your lies
verse 2:
you've built your altar
and carved my bedpost
my name's crossed out
you're treading water
i pull you close - not enough
it's not my home now
you've robbed me blind
while I held your hand
you tied this rope around your neck
bridge:
it's nothing like you loved
and nothing like you know
fading and far away
and not remotely like home
there's deceit in your confidence
a life that's so fraudulent
how do you choose which face you'll show to the world today
to make them all your slave?
your life is irrelevant, but scars are permanent
they serve as reminders why i add kindling to your funeral pyre
