And A Stage For You

Romeo's blood stains her teeth in denial
As she snaps at the bullets in her reserved trial.
Something bad is staining the air
But no one gives a fuck.

Well, everyone's looking.
The scene's not quite hooking.
The blood of the party's beginning to clot.

Suspended midair is her moment at last; she
Cuts down on the whiplash – it's all swordplay.
I ask you to hear me; "speak up" is what you say
With that script embedded in your hand.
Today I'm much more than pencil so try and erase me
As her words smother laughter like sand.
I can't understand why I stay
When you want everyone to see your one nightstand.

I suppose no pill could subdue the flames
While you blacked out my entitled places and names.
Finally free, you're cheating death –
That expanse hate will fill.

Well, everyone's looking.
The scene's not quite hooking.
The blood of the party's beginning to clot.

Suspended midair is her moment at last; she
Cuts down on the whiplash – it's all swordplay.
I ask you to hear me; "speak up" is what you say
With that script embedded in your hand.
Today I'm much more than pencil so try and erase me
As her words smother laughter like sand.
I can't understand why I stay
When you want everyone to see your one nightstand.

Drawing sin from burning crowds
You find 'no answer' is a solution.
When their vision suddenly clouds
Slipping façades bring evolution.
Drawing sin from burning crowds

When their vision suddenly clouds
Slipping façades bring evolution.

One arm and two claws,
Could you fail to please?
Choking all infrareds
You're a deadly disease.
