|
I see right through you when you sing it back to me |
|
I read that fine print and |
|
I saw you staggering |
|
Regurgitate the shit you find in the dirty dreams of a rapist's mind |
|
Congratulate the corpse you drag, put the money in the body bag |
|
Right in front of us |
|
The stop and start machine |
|
You've been singing with the liar's tongue |
|
With every crippled word you said to me |
|
With every fractured breath and broken glare |
|
You were pawning off your babies' debt with a cold paycheck |
|
Abandon what you built |
|
Repair your hope with guilt |
|
There's nothing left here to suffocate |
|
With razor wire arms you reach and miss the throat |
|
There's nothing left to love about this city anymore |
|
The politics and the hired whore |
|
Now, save your breath |
|
Now, into your mouth |
|
Did this to yourself |
|
You can't repair the punctured lung |
|
Secrets seep thru the stress cracks |
|
Shut your mouth |
|
I read the fine print |
|
Now, shut your mouth |
|
You did this to yourself |
|
Now shut your mouth and pay the rent |
|
You say it |
|
Like your life depends on believing in your own lie |
|
I see right thru you when you sing it |
|
Sing it back to me |
|
Now, say it like your life depends on believing in your own lie |
