Self-Centered Angst
Fae

tell me what it is that you want from me
I'll give you all you can see
watch you walk away empty-handed
'cause nothing's left of me
not since this emptiness began

have another slice of self-centered angst
you can shove it down your throat
and i'll be laughing through my tears
as i watch you choke
on the bitter taste of my pain

you go beyond a simple heartbreaker
straight into organ grinder
but what's left of this slaughtered heart
will be my reminder
to never fall in love again

never believed those empty compliments
cut the strings you held me to
take a bow as i leave the stage
won't break my legs for you
i'm not who i was back then

so do tell me who you think i am now?
close the doors into my eyes
lock the windows into this soul
hide behind my disguise -
and i will never let you in
