What's your
excuse now?
You've got lies repeating on a loop
and your eyes
admit the colder atmosphere around the truth.
What do you expect
now?
You've got us burning at the wheel.
Too much gasoline in
our lungs and we don't remember how to feel.
I've got a
match that could pretend to solve our problems
and you've got
the glass of your impending doom.
So what's your excuse now when
you're beating at the coffin door?
"Let me in, I don't wanna
be here."
No more games, this is real.
"Sobriety has left
me home to feel humane
and it's insane 'cause I don't care
anymore."
And it won't be long now when the walls start
caving in
around your bedroom and the sheets will fly away.
No
protection, no selection of the promises that you had failed to
mention
in the suicidal sanctuary of your home.
How long before
the break of day?
The night that's over ends the sober feeling
of regret
that rests inside the words you say.
I know you
think you can pretend
but you're a lie and you're a
fake.
Another broken heart to take
and you say you don't
mind.
I couldn't mind, I'm indifferent to your cries.
You're
so pathetic
but I know a place where rain won't make the flowers
grow.
I don't want to save you.
I've given up, so tell
me, are you more content now?
As you're swallowing your pride,
I'm smoking away mine.
I just don't want to deal with you
anymore,
but maybe it's just a different state of mind.
We'll
go to separate Edens
where you'll live alone and die in this
fit
of sour brokenness that survives inside the lie you call your
life.
